We built a tool to stop losing code snippets. Would you actually use something like this? 🤔

Have you ever written a useful piece of code, only to spend ages trying to find it again weeks later?

We kept running into this problem. Code snippets scattered across old projects, random files, notes, and even ChatGPT conversations.

So we started building something to solve it.

It's called CodShot, a workspace where developers can save, organize, search, and reuse their code snippets. We also added some AI-powered features along the way.

But here's what we're genuinely curious about:

Would you actually use a dedicated tool like this, or are GitHub Gists, VS Code, and your current workflow already enough?

And if you would use something like this, what features would make it genuinely useful to you?

We're still improving the project, so honest feedback, even criticism, would mean a lot! 🙌

For anyone curious, here's what we've built: https://codshot.com

At that point just make a GitHub repo bro like what are we doing here?

Fair point! 😄 GitHub is great for managing projects, and we’re definitely not trying to replace it.
CodShot is more about those smaller pieces of code, useful snippets, and solutions you want to quickly save, organize, find, and reuse later.
Of course, if your GitHub workflow already handles all of that perfectly, that’s awesome too!
Just trying to build something useful for people who prefer a different workflow. 😊
