Show HN: Snippets.dev – Open-source, local-first PWA code scratchpad

snippets.dev

Snippets.dev is a PWA that stores everything locally in the browser (IndexedDB), with export/import to JSON for backups.

I can't install apps or use cloud-based solutions at work so I built this primarily for my own usage, but hopefully others might also find it useful.

Any feedback gratefully received.

Hey I like it from the screenshot will peep it later. Would love this on mobile since that’s when I need snippets stored and otherwise use iOS notes.

Interesting thanks - have just targeted desktop for now, though making a sensible responsive layout for mobile should be fairly easy. Albeit it would mean that any snippets on mobile would not be shared with desktop given the local/browser based storage approach.
