I should’ve commented this earlier but completely forgot:<p>Hi HN,
I built this over the weekend and last few days and am happy with how its turning out so thought I’d share. The source is available at <a href="https://github.com/MaxLeiter/drift" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/MaxLeiter/drift</a>
This project looks quite well done. Gists are pften useful for various tasks, such as sharing small scripts, and self-hosting it for privacy/ security reasons sounds like a good idea.<p>Fyi, Gitlab CE/EE have "Snippets" alias gists with access control. They are quite handy and can be bound to project/ group and individual level as well as only being shared with specific users.
I would love if you the docs in IndexedDB incase I don't want to host a server or put it on someone else's server. And occasionally export all my data<p>Would love to able to add other code files types like github. ``` in md isn't the solution<p>But awesome work :)
I would totally use this over GitHub Gists if this worked for file formats other than markdown, where you could specify the syntax highlighting language. Of course, you could just wrap your text in ```py ```, for example, but that would mean the raw text would be altered (and would likelt become invalid). This is far from trivial to implement, I would assume.
i have also created a similar product, its called codekeep <a href="http://codekeep.io" rel="nofollow">http://codekeep.io</a> , - google keep for codesnippets that allows users to tag and organize snippets
