Snibox

Snibox is a self-hosted snippet manager for collecting and organizing code snippets, Markdown, and plain text. Its label-oriented interface and search help users arrange and find saved material. It is released under the MIT License and listed as free at free. Deployment guides cover Docker, Heroku, macOS, Ubuntu, and Windows; listed platforms also include Linux, macOS, web, Windows, and self-hosted use. The setup is limited to one registered user out of the box: the authentication documentation says only the first registered user can access the personal private snippets repository, and registration of additional users is disabled by default. Production password-reset email uses Mailgun, which the maker says is needed only for resets. Deployment instructions describe configuring Mailgun variables in the.env file or installing the Mailgun Starter add-on on Heroku. The Ubuntu guide also calls for setting up the database before launching the server and configuring credentials if needed. The README links to a demo and says its free Heroku server may take up to 30 seconds to wake.
