sti320aon Show HN: I built a service to share source code without signing up

This idea is almost same as Pastebin. But as @nirushiv mentioned, I focus on snippets. This service specializes in source code sharing. Pastebin doesn't classify code by languages and doesn't have run features.

Thank you for your comment. As I mentioned on above comment, I'm considering to add timeout and limit number of running by users.

Thank you for good comment. As you say, I have to think measures to stop spam (Now I delete spam manually). For escaping infinite loops, I'm considering to add time out.

Thank you for your great advice.

> they could be sorted by the number of codes in a descending order.

Sorting is important. I will try to implement this.

> There is just too much white color.

I think so too. Now I am trying to implement Dark mode. I will try Material as the solution.

> I see "No title" everywhere, do we need to see "No title" or maybe not show anything?

'No title' is not good as you point out. I'm going to hide it if no title.

I appreciate your advice. I improve front-end more.

I didn't know the 'SNS' is only used in Japan. I need to say 'Social Networking Service' without abbreviating. Thank you for pointing out.

# What is this?

This is a web service for sharing soruce code. The most important feature is that this doesn't require signing up for submiting source code. Users can share their source code without any account. It uses unique URL for sharing source code.

# Why did I build this?

For sharing source code, we can use GitHub or Gist, GitLab and so on. These services require us to sign in before sharing source code. However I sometimes want to share small source code like snippet with syntax highlight on SNS. Almost of popular SNSs don't have syntax highlight or code sharing feature easy to see. This is why I built this service.

# What is it different?

This doesn't require users to sign in.We don't need to create account for sharing source code. This is very simple. Just copy and pasete source code on textarea and click submit button. Then you can share source code by URL.
