Snipt API (and so much more!)
After a short feature-hiatus I’m proud to announce quite a few new things here at Snipt.org. As you may notice we have a sweet new jazzy logo provided by twitter user @miggi. We also have a well designed “extend” page which shows you all the cool new ways you can use Snipt (thanks to @wittyphrasehere).
As far as new features and things to play with there are quite a few-
Snipts:
- Change highlight theme on the fly
- Change text size on the fly via [+ / -] buttons
- Enabled/Disable word wrap
- Max / Min snipt pane (for easier viewing of large snipts)
Extending Snipt:
Now your snipts can venture outside the walls of Snipt.org and take on a life all their own! The Snipt.org API allows you to access and modify snipts remotely via REST calls. You can also use the open source actionscript library to easily integrate the Snipt API with your Flash/Flex/AIR projects. To test the API and also make something cool, Snipt.org is now available on the desktop in a package I like to call the “Cloud Coder”. This gives you easy access to snipping without having to launch a web browser, and best of all- its built on the brand new API. There are also other options, such as the new Wordpress plugin and the JS embed.
I hope you find these new features useful, Snipt.org is a tool for the community that is built on feedback from the community. If you have suggestions on how to improve Snipt, just shoot me a tweet!
