Summary
Ever wanted to save some text for later use, or throw some info over from one of your computers to another? This extension 'snips' text from pages you visit (or you can create them manually) and saves them in your Edge Sync storage. Use the pop-out button for easier organization of your snippets!
This extension aims to become fully backup compatible with the Clippings extension for Firefox. The 0.9 release provides all basic features required to be a good snipper and preserves all restored data from any clippings backup. Additionally, more settings and control over your how your snippets are displayed have been added and the save engine rewritten to be more robust.
Roadmap:
0.9.3 -> Add shortcut keys, more color and more sortation options.
1.0 -> Add variable support for things like current dates & times, locales, etc..
1.1 -> Support for multiple "spaces" to better organize snippets when doing different types of work.
Changelog:
0.9.2 -> Many under the hood updates to improve efficiency and fix issues with iframes
