Anything helps!

๐Ÿ‘‹ world, I'm an indie developer from some corner of the interweb. Hoping my contributions will make your life easier. This idea started when I was setting up a new computer. I had to send some text files to myself. Turns out transferring is a ๐Ÿคฎ. Couldn't find a ๐Ÿ’พ. No ๐Ÿ”‘ manager installed. No e-โœ‰๏ธ. No google ๐Ÿ“ƒ. No account signup! Thus came sharetxt. I spent a lot of weekends making this look nice. I hope you all make good use of it. Share the โค๏ธ Leon

Great product! I think it would be a bit easier if you didn't have to type โ€œid?โ€ and could just enter the code after the url. Typing these three characters feels like unnecessary extra action.

Firebase Quota Exceeded... other than that, solid idea, i think it could be expanded upon, polished (eg, a loading state).
Kieran Holroyd
also, looking at your source, it seems you're using a really inefficient way to use firebase, don't send every keystroke to the server or you will use loads of resources. and $$$, it's a bad idea :)

Really nice project.. It would be nice to have a larger text box to write in and some minimal features for the text and background colors. Good Job!

@leon_do Nice project! But how can i change the background color?

@artemlarin the default is currently yellow, but if you're feeling like a hacker, then try right click the website > inspect element > select "body" > change background color cheers!
