Snipplle

What Snipplle is

Snipplle is an open-source platform for creating, organizing, storing, and sharing code snippets. It runs on the web and Linux, offers API and CLI access, and can be run locally or self-hosted on your infrastructure. Organize snippets with tags, projects, programming languages, and collections, then use search to find and reuse them. Version history lets you review changes, compare versions, and restore an earlier one. You can share snippets and collections publicly or with a team.

Team access is managed through invitation-based workspaces. Each user can create one workspace and join multiple others. Snippets are visible to members of their workspace, and data is isolated between workspaces. The maker describes Snipplle as intended for individual developers, teams, and open-source contributors. Snipplle Cloud is a free public beta with all features available without limits during the beta, and cross-device sync is available. The application includes authentication and API token management. For self-hosting, the listed prerequisites are PostgreSQL, Node.js 18 or later, and pnpm.

Who it suits

Snipplle suits individual developers who want to keep, search, and revisit code snippets, as well as teams that share them through workspaces. It also fits open-source contributors and people who want to run the application locally or on their own infrastructure.

Limits

Snipplle Cloud is listed as free, with all features available without limits during the beta. Each user can create one workspace; advanced ownership controls and invitation settings such as roles, permissions, and expiration are described as planned features.
