[feat] Start new project from Clipboard Content

Open alolalo opened this issue 2 years ago • 4 comments

Describe the problem

I just want to copy-paste some code into an editor for later processing, not setting up a boilerplate project

Describe the solution you'd like

The content of the clipboard is auto-detected and what language it uses, but would be elementary support HTML, CSS & JS.

Once I paste the code it goes into a seperate "Inbox" folder in which these "Snippets" are stored. The inbox can be shared across multiple projects so it would function as a backbone building block, not a front-facing building block like UI-components.

Alternatives considered

Whut? You pit yourselfs against competition when you're an online IDE that saves me from offline alternatives!

Additional context

I'm a designer who devs like a Dutch Hell-diver of Details called justgu.us Questions? Just askgu.us

Love the experience, hope you can make some UX changes like bigger typography so I can read the code a bit better

Thanks for the feature request @alolalo . We need to have a better-integrated snippets manager as you suggested. But in the meantime, can you try out the extension Brackets Snippets (by edc) if it suits your needs?

Yes this helps a bit I guess, and I do agree that the typography needs to get more user-controlled because it's kind of unbearable to read, in app too. I hope that helps you people improve some of the basics that I think people are used to.
