Coda Clips - A Repository of Clips for Coda

by Cecily on April 28, 2008

If you’re like me and are a fan of Coda, the one-window web editor from Panic Software, but you’ve bemoaned the lack of default code clips included with the package, then you’ll be very happy to hear about Coda Clips, a repository of code snippets that can be added to the software. It would be better if you could download the snippets as a file and simply import them into Coda, but alas, you’ll have to copy and paste them instead.

You’ll find snippets for CSS, Expression Engine, JavaScript, PHP, HTML, and WordPress code. Sweet.

“Facebook’s everything-to-everyone position means that they’re not building the software FOR anyone. They are the mall. They are Costco. The aisles are brightly lit, and there are ten thousand different options that seem different but are actually all the same mediocre, discounted, made in China crap - they just happen to be conveniently located in the same place. They are McDonalds. Walmart.”

ScreenSteps promises to make this less of a chore.
