This project was inspired by the excellent Kopy.io
While still useful, there are two reasons I feel it's time to move on. First, their certificates have expired. This makes sharing proprietary or sensitive data completely off the table. Links that open with a security warning are pretty off putting.
Second, the utility of a paste bin is it's permanence. More often than not, someone's already solved the problem you're working on. But if their solution is lost to time, we'll have to debug the issue all over again. This project aims to be a successor to Kopy, with a handful of important differences.
- Everything is encoded in the url, data never expires
- Monaco provides more modern feel
- Titles make the browser tab more readable
- Unsaved changes display a warning on exit
- Light and dark modes
- Reasonable mobile support
- Open source under the MIT license
This project uses pnpm as the package manager. Once that is installed, run the following to create a dev environment.
pnpm install
pnpm run devThe website should now be running at http://localhost:5173
