I was tired of updating code snippets from my documentation every time I changed the source code, so I created a tool that does that for me πŸ—Ώ

Hey @tratteo this is really nice and helpful, especially for documentation πŸ‘πŸ» How does it work? The snippet is embedded as an image. How does Codemeup know when the image needs to be rerendered? Does it need access to the repository to check for updates? Congrats on the launch πŸš€

@crebuh The code is rendered as an svg, hence HTML code. This means that at every request the snippet is rebuilt since rendering is efficient ⚑. Internally, Codmeup does have smart caching to allow faster reqeusts tho!

@tratteo really cool πŸ‘ŒπŸ»

Hey Matteo, Does it support private repositories, and if so, how does it handle authentication and security? Congrats on the launch!
Matteo Beltrame
@kyrylosilin Yes it does indeed! Codemeup is an Oauth Github app, when installed for a certain user, it retrieves an Oauth token with the required permissions

This is cool! Do you have an example of a readme doc on GitHub already using this?
Matteo Beltrame
@sentry_co Not yet but you can test it here with any public repository: https://codemeup.dev/render

@sentry_co I just used Codemeup with the new watermark on the README of one of my open source packages, check it out: https://github.com/wildspace-dev...

@tratteo Neat. Needs a copy btn maybe.

"Finally, a tool that gets me! Codemeup is like the personal assistant I never knew I needed for my code snippets. No more endless README updates every time I tweak a line of code. It's like Codemeup is whispering, 'I've got you, fam.' Absolute game-changer, @tratteo! πŸš€πŸ–₯️ #LazyDevLife"

Sounds like a really handy tool for devs. Just checked it out briefly, but it looks promising for saving time on doc updates. Congrats on solving a common headache!

Codemeup sounds like a powerful tool for developers who want to streamline their documentation process! Automatically keeping code snippets up to date by pulling directly from GitHub is a game-changer, saving time and ensuring accuracy. The ability to generate and embed beautiful snippets anywhere makes it even more versatile, making sure your docs always look polished and professional without the hassle of manually updating them. For anyone managing project documentation, Codemeup could definitely simplify the workflow and eliminate outdated examples in README files. Looking forward to seeing how it improves developer workflows!

Congratulations on the launch of Codemeup! I'm really excited to see how this tool can streamline the process of keeping documentation up to date with code snippets directly from GitHub. Have you considered adding customization options for the appearance of the code snippets or perhaps integration with other documentation tools? That could really enhance its versatility.

I got the need this morning when I had to share some lines of code on slack for a quick review. I discovered your tool just after! Congrats for you launch!
