Do you keep them in your IDE, or elsewhere? Do you have an app for that? Are they easily shared?

I realized I have no system at all but could use one to make it easier to find code I’ve written and might need again some day.

By snippets, I am referring to any chunk of code / text in any format or language, of any length.

Thanks!

EDIT A DAY LATER: Thanks you all! Reading all these ideas, I got inspired to create my own little web app. Wish me luck… :)

    I’ve only used code snippets in VS Code which can store them in user settings for synchronization. They can also e stored in project settings, which can be optionally synchronized via source control.

    I tend not to need them in larger projects where a lot of codegen is available or macros, so I haven’t thought about a solution for things like VS or manual syncing.
