I made a super simple extension to share code snippets instantly with a 6-digit code. No login required.

Hey everyone,

I got tired of the constant hassle of sending quick snippets of code or text between my devices—or over to a coworker—without having to open up Slack, Discord, or clog up an email draft.

So, I built a lightweight tool called CopyShare to solve exactly that.

The idea is super simple:

Select any text or code right inside VS Code.

Hit Ctrl + Shift + Alt + S.

You instantly get a temporary 6-character code.

You can give that code to anyone, and the second they enter it, they get your text. No accounts to create, no passwords to remember, and no logins required. To keep things clean and secure, all codes automatically self-destruct and expire after 10 minutes.

It works seamlessly VS Code to VS Code, but you can also use it via the web if you're sharing with a phone or a browser:
👉 copyshare-ebon.vercel.app

If you want to try out the extension, just search for "CopyShare" directly inside the VS Code Marketplace.

It’s completely free and built purely for speed. I'd love to hear what you think, if you run into any bugs, or if there are any features you’d like to see added next!

Cheers!
