SnippetsLab features


Organize code snippets for ease

You are the creator of your code library, so you can tweak it as you like. SnippetsLab has perfect organization tools to help you out. Sort code snippets by any specification, create Smart Groups, and add tags for easier navigation. So that every snippet is within your reach.


Add code comments and fragments

If code is not enough, you can enrich your snippet with notes. Add links, descriptions — any background information you think is worth mentioning. You can also combine fragments of code into a single snippet or break snippets into separate parts. It’s all changeable.


Personal assistant in the menu bar

SnippetsLab creates a shortcut to your code, a quick access to every snippet right from the menu bar. Without opening the app’s main window, you can search through snippets — based on your custom search scope — preview code, and jump to the home screen whenever needed.


Syntax highlighting and markdown

The code snippet manager supports syntax highlighting for over 420 different languages. Quickly toggle the selected language on the bottom of the app’s window and have your code in the right shape. SnippetsLab also supports markdown preview — in case you need better visibility.


GitHub Gist integration

The beautiful part, you can have SnippetsLab and GitHub work in sync. With the Gist integration, the app allows to import code from your GitHub as well as export a complete library or separate snippets to be published as gists. So that you don’t have to choose where to keep your code.


Sync and backup your code

SnippetsLab works with popular file sync services like Dropbox and Google Drive, as well as maintains your code consistency across devices — with iCloud sync. What’s more, you should never worry about losing a fraction of your code — the app runs backups on a daily basis.

    App version: 2.6.1

    Fantastic app! Although I use it for storing the occassional CSS snippet, I also use it for all my on-the-fly text needs. It’s highly efficient and elegant for this purpose, with its excellent menu bar integration, and the fact that everything is automatically saved without the need to provide titles. Plus you don’t end up with an unwieldy quantity of tabs or windows like in a text editor.

    App version: 2.6.1

    I wasn’t sure that this would stick for me. I already use TextExpander for lots of snippets. But SnippetsLab is makes code snippets much easier to manage. As a specially designed tool, it’s well worth using.
