Snippet Box

Snippet Box is a free, MIT-licensed self-hosted application for creating, editing, browsing, and managing code snippets in different languages. Its built-in editor handles snippet authoring, while syntax highlighting and detail views help users read code and documentation. Markdown support allows notes or simple documentation alongside snippets. A tagged library supports filtering, and users can pin important or favorite snippets to the home screen. Search covers snippet titles and descriptions, with language and tag filters that can be combined in one query. The project documents Docker deployment and a non-Docker route that runs the built server with Node.js. The listed backend uses Node.js, TypeScript, Express.js, Sequelize, and SQLite; the frontend uses React, TypeScript, and Bootstrap. A Docker example mounts a host data directory at /app/data. Docker build instructions include Linux and ARM targets, including arm/v7 and arm64. The listed plan costs nothing, and no free trial is listed.
