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: 2.6.2

    It’s overall a great app but there’s key features missing like being able to save a markdown file in the local file system. Being able to upload to Github Gist is really nice, but it would be also very appreciatable to be able to save a markdown file (especially when it contains a markdown file) into a local directory in order to be able to push it into a project repository. It’s really boring everytime having to : - open a file with a text editor - copy markdown text - paste it into snippetslab - modify the snippet - copy updated text from snippetslab - paste it into text editor - then save. seven steps instead of three.

    App version: 2.6.2

    The interface is sleek and responsive, though there remain several areas ripe for enhancement. Nevertheless, it holds considerable promise.

    App version: 2.6.2

    Was a handy app, I’ll probably re-install the App Store version on my personal Mac. Will really miss the SetApp version as, like a previous reviewer, my work machine doesn’t allow App Store installs. Maybe I’ll file a ticket to get it pushed through MDM at least to engineering machines. Being free should make that an easier sell, ha. Farewell SetApp version. Thanks for the fish.
