TypeSnip — a private, local TypeScript snippet manager
TypeSnip helps you organize and reuse your TypeScript code snippets — privately, directly in your browser. No logins, no servers, no tracking. Everything you create stays on your device using the browser’s secure IndexedDB storage.
Why TypeSnip exists
As developers, we constantly revisit small pieces of code — utility types, hooks, helper functions — yet most snippet tools force you to sync through the cloud, create accounts, or hand over your code to third parties. TypeSnip takes a different approach:
- Offline-first — works entirely without an internet connection.
- Private by design — nothing is uploaded, indexed, or shared.
- Instant — open, edit, copy, and run locally in milliseconds.
- Persistent — snippets live inside your browser’s database until you delete them.
- Installable — add TypeSnip to your desktop or home screen (PWA).
- Beautiful UI — clean interface powered by React, Tailwind, and shadcn/ui.
How it works
When you open TypeSnip for the first time, it creates a small private database inside your browser. Each snippet you add — title, tags, and code — is stored there and can be searched or edited offline. Because nothing leaves your device, your code never touches a server.
Roadmap
- Export / import snippets as JSON
- Optional encrypted cloud backup (opt-in only)
- More editor themes and language modes
- Browser extensions and VS Code companion
