  Snipworth turns code snippets into clean, shareable images — right from your browser.
  
  Built for developers who share code on Twitter/X, LinkedIn, Bluesky, blogs, or
  documentation and who want a tidy home for the snippets they keep coming back to.
  Paste a snippet (or right-click « Snipworth this code » on any page), pick a theme,
  format it, and copy a PNG to your clipboard in one click. Snipworth isn't only for
  snippets you're about to post — save anything worth keeping to your local library: a
  draft to publish later, or a piece of code you'll want to reuse or look up again down
  the line.
  
  KEY FEATURES
  
  • Side panel that stays open while you browse, plus a full-tab mode for bigger snippets
  • Right-click « Snipworth this code » on any selected code on the web
  • Auto-detected language with manual override and one-click re-detection — across 36 languages
  • VS Code-quality syntax highlighting (powered by Shiki)
  • One-click code formatting with Prettier — JavaScript, TypeScript, JSON...
  • Customize theme (dark / light), monospace font, size, canvas background, padding, and more
  • Copy straight to the clipboard, or download as PNG or SVG — at 1×, 2×, or 4× for crisp images on any display
  • Draft library — save snippets to keep, refine, or reuse later, and filter them by platform, language, status, or tags
  • Made for sharing — per-platform presets (dimensions, aspect ratio, character limit), plus captions and hashtags
  • Back up or move your whole library — export it to a JSON file and re-import later, adding to or replacing what you have
  • 100% local — your snippets, drafts, and settings never leave your machine
  • No account, no tracking, no analytics, no ads
  • Open source (MIT) — code on GitHub
