Yep. I love thiscodeworks.com for saving code snippets - maybe because I'm the creator ;). I had the same problem as you and decided to just create a place to store snippets myself. It has project boards and the ability to bookmark other people's code. Am also working on integrating it with Atom and VS Code.

Hi Mishky

I like your website. I just registered it. That is an awesome place to store code snippets. It's easy to use.

If you don't mind me suggesting to you - it would be nice if you can add a search feature. If I look for a specific snippet, I have to keep looking till I find it.

Sorry seeing this post later. We've implemented search since then. And with the Chrome & VS Code extensions you can also search from within other apps as well now!

thanks for your reply. I have tested the search feature, but thats not exactly what I need. For example, I have added some code snippets of mine to my private gists. When searching for a specific one from the private gists, I get the whole results including public and I cannot find mine. I need to have a search feature on the private gists only.
