Sourcebench - the web developer’s workplace

We are proud to present the brand new version of our snippet library.

It still needs a lot of improvements but for now it is already a good replacement for the old snippets. The system is still running in beta mode but even now all subscribers are able to submit their code snippets to our system.

To submit a snippet you can either fill the online form or drag this Sourcebench bookmarklet to your bookmarks toolbar and you can easily mark text sections in your browser and post right to our system.

We know that this script is still only very basic and needs a lot of improvement but we already want to invite all subscribers who have useful chunks of code to submit them to our snippet library.

In the soon future this script will be extended with extra functions such as :

• Editing of your snippets
• Import of snippets from other systems
• Feeds for user submitted snippets
• API to access and manage snippets
• Plugins for various CMS systems including wordpress
• Creating SVN connection to enable checkin and checkout of snippets and full scripts via subversion

As i want to extend our snippet section we are working right now on an upcoming beta version of a small extension, that will allow users the posting of snippets directly to sourcebench.

Various pages such as Snipplr, Text Snippets, Big Bold or ProgrammingIsHard.com offer such services already but we are going to extend the feature set a bit once the public beta is sucessfully established.

Stay tuned - we keep you updated once the feature goes live.
