Pluck v1.0.2 — I built a floating clipboard manager for Windows (open source)

If you copy all day between browser tabs, Slack, and your IDE, you know the pain: copy → switch app → forget what you copied → hunt history.

Pluck is my answer: a Windows clipboard manager where every copy becomes a visible bubble on the edge of your screen.

What makes it different

  • Visual clipboard — recent clips stay on screen, not buried in a menu
  • Drag-to-paste — drop a bubble onto any window (with - target highlight)
  • Fast actions — left/right/middle click + modifiers, all configurable
  • Local-first — SQLite history under %LocalAppData%\Pluck\, no cloud

Tech stack
.NET 10, WPF, Win32 interop, single full-screen overlay for bubble rendering.

Try it
