Look promising, maybe it will replace #snippetslab?... :) I've been looking for a replacement that has Github Gist sync, smart folders...

@thedaviddias1 Thanks David, I'm an old SnippetsLab user myself. 😊 Codespace doesn't have GitHub Gist syncing yet. Tbh I rarely use Github Gists personally, do you normally use it just to have an online backup of your snippets?

@t4t5 I use mostly to have an online backup or in case I forked from someone else and want to easily bring it to SnippetsLab. I also use extensively the smart folders (example https://github.com/thedaviddias/...)

@thedaviddias1 @t4t5 I'd find syncing/publishing to Gists useful, so +1 from me!
David Ramalho
Love this! I know it's made offline first, but is there a way to export/import the library to backup onto something like dropbox?

@david_ramalho1 Thanks! I haven't built that yet, but it could easily be added in the next version. 😊 Is there a specific format you'd want it exported to or just anything that can be imported back into the app?
David Ramalho
@t4t5 anything that could still utilize the app. Especially if I am using 2 devices, or another team member may want the same snippets I created vs. sharing one at a time via a URL 👍

@david_ramalho1 Makes sense. Thanks for the feedback, will add that feature in the next version!
David Ramalho
@t4t5 Another potential feature request is a way to easily turn off word-wrapping :)

@david_ramalho1 @t4t5 I would love for it to be saved as markdown with code blocks. It would be awesome to save every snippet as a separate file (this way I can sync it with iCloud and it would be searchable by spotlight too). I would be pissed if my laptop broke and I would loose all the snippets... A nice solution would be for automated exports maybe? Just to have everything backed up and don't worry about data loss, which would be extremely difficult to get back. Bought the app, looks great but... I NEED MY CLOUD BACKUP :P

This _is_ the snippet manager I was looking for! Two things: 1. The one missing feature for me is the ability to add snippet metadata. For instance, I want to be able to add "sources" to snippets – URLs where I might have learned the snippet, for reference purposes. 2. In your demo animation at the top of the page, the example snippet, a shell command, is identified as Ruby. Don't know if you care about that or not, it's not the biggest deal. Awesome work!

@davidgay 🙌 1. I was thinking of adding that, but realised I mostly just add the URL as a code comment. I do see how you might want to add some longer documentation with markdown support though, so I might add that as a feature in an upcoming version! 2. Yeah I noticed that too. 😅Not sure why the automatic code detection identified it as Ruby. Might have to tweak some parameters there...
David Gay
@t4t5 Yeah markdown doc support would be *sick*, actually, didn't even think of that. But yeah not having the URL as a comment would be nice because then it doesn't have to be copied when you copy the snippet. Thanks for the response!

Just bought the app. Love it. It would be nice if I can sync (i.e. Dropbox, Google Drive) and use it on my another computer. Great user interface

@shoaibsharif Thanks Shoaib! Syncing + importing is definitely coming soon. Stay tuned! 😊

Hi Hunters! 👋 I started working on Codespace in December last year because I wasn’t really 100% satisfied with any of the other code snippet managers that I found. I wanted something with... 🗂 Branded folders that can be nested ↗️ Super easy one-click sharing 🎨 A great user interface 🐧 Works on Mac, Windows and Linux 🛑 No annoying subscription fees, just let me buy the app! So here it is – the code snippet I waited for that never came. I’m really excited to share it with everyone and hear what you think! 👉 Use the code SPACEHUNTER for 25% off your purchase (expires May 1st)! Stay safe, AMA and hope you love the app! ❤️ /Tristan

Any way to test the app before buying? I tried many other snippet managers and none of them were good for me, but I'm still looking. For Brazilian people like me, US $ 12 -> R$ 64.03, and that's a huge amount, mainly because I don't even know the software

@fabricio_parola I understand. There's no trial version unfortunately, but if you do buy it and it doesn't live up to your expectations, you can send me an email and I'll make sure you get a full refund. Also, don't forget to use the "SPACEHUNTER" coupon code at the checkout for 25% off 😊
Jeremy Pinnix
Is there an area for notes along with a snippet?
Tristan

@jeremy_pinnix Not at the moment, but it's been requested by multiple users so I will add that in an upcoming version of the app!
