Usage Guide

Signing in

Sign in at snippetbook.swastikapps.com using your Google account. No password is needed — your account is created automatically on first sign-in.


Creating a snippet

Click + New in the top-right of the dashboard. Fill in the form:

Field Required Notes
Title Yes Short, searchable name
Description No Optional one-liner context
Language No Defaults to plaintext
Code Yes Paste any code or text

Click Add snippet to save. Your snippet is immediately available in search.


Searching snippets

The search bar at the top of the dashboard searches across snippet titles, descriptions, and code in real time. Results are ranked by relevance.

Type any keyword — partial matches work too, so react will match react-hook, useReactState, etc.

The search updates as you type, with a short delay to keep things responsive.


Editing a snippet

Hover over any snippet card — an Edit button appears in the bottom left. Click it to open the edit form with the existing values pre-filled.

You can only edit your own snippets.


Snippet limits

Your plan determines how many snippets you can store:

Plan Limit
Free 100 snippets
Pro 500 snippets

When you reach your limit, you’ll need to remove existing snippets or upgrade your plan before adding more.


Copying code

Click the Copy button on any snippet card — the full code is copied to your clipboard. The button briefly shows “Copied!” as confirmation.
