snippet-box VS navi

Alternative: Snippet Box

snippet-box is a program that I run on docker to hold small bits of code. It's no longer being updated, but... It doesn't really need to be. o_o All I'm asking of it to do is hold what essentially boils down to .txt files. Therefore, it not being updated anymore doesn't really affect me at all, so I've stuck with it

If you just are saving snippets, I like Snippet Box for that. Lets you save little snippets, organize via tags, and write documentation on things like commands, scripts, etc.

This project looks *really* interesting, but seems to be quite dead.

I'm a big fan of Bookstack, but for saving commands I use Snippet-Box.

I use a Docker app called SnippetBox. It's awesome for super quick copy/paste and organization of scripts. https://github.com/pawelmalak/snippet-box

I've built something similar for myself (fzf+a bit of shell). But I realized that fzf's history view (with very long history buffer) works much better for my use case.

I still needed something to cover rare commands with dynamic arguments. That got covered by Navi: https://github.com/denisidoro/navi (takes more friction to add new command than with TBMK, but you get much more organized and easier to search tool).

Similar projects (in a way): navi

I think navi is a better alternative. You can create custom cheats too.

navi might help you with that

I like using navi, but idk if you want something that runs in the terminal.

There's also a cli program called tealdeer that does this kind of thing and uses a local cache. And there's a fuzzy search interactive cli cheatsheet program called navi that's also pretty cool (and you can write your own cheatsheets).
