project2txt

Hey Product Hunt! I'm the maker of project2txt, and I'm so excited to share this with you all. The story behind this tool is simple: I built it to solve my own problem. As a developer, I use AI assistants like ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini daily. The biggest challenge was always giving them the full context of my codebase securely and efficiently. Whether it was for code reviews, debugging, or just understanding a new project, getting the whole picture to the AI was a pain. I started with a local bash script to convert my repo to text, but it was clumsy and not always available when I switched machines. Manually copy-pasting was a nightmare. That's why I created project2txt. It's a simple, always-online web tool that lets you export any project to a single text file with one click—whether it's from VSCode, IntelliJ, or a local GitHub repo. The most important feature: it's 100% private. All processing happens locally in your browser. Your code never leaves your machine and is never uploaded to any server. It also intelligently filters out noise like node_modules and .git folders, keeping only the essential source code. This creates a clean, structured format that LLMs can easily understand. This little tool has become an essential part of my daily workflow, and I hope it makes your AI-assisted development easier too. I'd love for you to try it out and share any feedback or suggestions you have. Thanks for checking it out.
