I Built a Developer-Focused Snippet Hub to Finally Organize My Coding Life

Introducing SnippKit – My Solution to Code Chaos 🧩

As a developer, I constantly found myself digging through old projects, Notion pages, or random files just to find a single code snippet I had written weeks ago. Sound familiar?

That’s why I built SnippKit – a clean, focused space where you can save, manage, and reuse your code snippets effortlessly.


πŸ”§ Why I Built It

I wanted something:

  • Simple, fast, and clean.
  • That supported syntax highlighting and multi-language snippets.
  • That didn't just dump everything in a list but let me organize by tags, folders, or favorites.
  • That respected my privacy, but still allowed me to share a snippet when I wanted to.

There were some tools out there, but they either felt bloated, outdated, or not built with modern developers in mind.


✨ Key Features

  • πŸš€ Save your favorite snippets with language support
  • 🏷️ Tag-based organization
  • πŸ” Public by default but changeable, shareable when needed
  • πŸ”Ž Instant search & filter
  • 🌘 Built-in dark/light mode

Bonus: It's also blazing fast ⚑


πŸ’¬ Built With

  • Next.js + Supabase
  • Tailwind CSS
  • Framer Motion for sweet microinteractions
  • Clerk for auth
  • LemonSqueezy for subscription support

It’s all part of a #BuildInPublic journey – I’m learning and shipping every day.


🧠 What's Next?

  • VS Code Extension
  • AI tagging & auto-suggestion
  • Public snippet sharing
  • GitHub import/export

πŸ—£οΈ Feedback Wanted!

I'd love to hear:

  • How do you currently manage your code snippets?
  • What features would make SnippKit valuable to you?
  • What snippet tools do you use (if any)?

Try it out at πŸ‘‰ snippkit.com

Thanks for reading πŸ™

Let’s organize code like pros πŸš€
