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… :)
It depends how much boilerplate you need - there’s obviously some stuff that needs to be the same all over but if there’s significant amounts of code you constantly need to replicate that’s when it’s a code smell for me. I probably could’ve been more precise in my initial statement.
