Even simple things like a button trigger can take a while to code, which makes any programmer's work long and tedious. This is why saving snippets for repetitive use is always a good idea, and if you need something to help you organize them, then you should definitely have a look at SnipAway. It's a no-nonsense and straightforward snippet manager, with an intuitive interface and highly responsive controls, which you will find quite comfortable to use. You can paste the bits of code you use on a regular basis, and, instead of writing the code each time you need to execute call upon a function, you look for the right snippet and simply copy it and paste it, which is much faster and more comfortable.

SnipAway is absolutely free, and you can have it up and running on your computer in no time. It works on all modern systems, and it doesn't rely on any particular tools or services to run. Also, you don't need to worry about any impact on performance since the application's hardware requirements are quite modest.

The software places a series of features around a text editor to help you organize your snippets. Besides writing or pasting your code, you can also add a title and a description, directly above the text editing area. The snippets you create are saved automatically, and you can find them in a column, on the left side of the interface. Additionally, you can mark them as favorites and organize them in folders. Whenever you need to write the code for a specific function, you can just search the snippet in your folders, favorites section or just use a search function to locate it instantly.

When you paste your code, you can also specify its language. The software provides support for countless programming languages, and you can pick one in a drop-down menu, in the lower-right corner of the interface. With a language selected, SnipAway's syntax highlighting capabilities will kick in and mark your code using different colors, to make everything easier to see and understand. Another advantage is the fact that your snippets will have different icons, depending on language, which makes them easier to spot in the list. Furthermore, markdown support, code folding and autocomplete are other features you can expect to find if you decide to write your snippets instead of pasting them.

SnipAway is something that every programmer should have in their arsenal due to its highly beneficial functionality.

Pros
