What is SnippetBook?

SnippetBook is a personal code snippet manager — a clipboard for developers that follows you everywhere:

  • Web dashboard — create, search, and manage all your snippets at snippetbook.swastikapps.com
  • VS Code extension — access your full library right inside the editor sidebar

Quick start

  1. Create a free account — sign in with Google, no password needed.
  2. Click + New to save your first snippet — paste your code, add a title and language tag.
  3. (Optional) Install the VS Code extension to access snippets without leaving your editor.
