About Snip It — Note Manager
❓ WHY SNIP IT
We take notes on the web constantly — copying quotes into random documents, screenshotting tweets, leaving fifteen tabs open "to remember." Snip It replaces all of that with one habit: select, right-click, save. Every note keeps a link back to where it came from, so you never lose the context. 🔗
🚀 HOW IT WORKS
Select any text on any web page.
Right-click and choose "Save as note."
Click the Snip It icon in your toolbar to see everything you've saved. 📋
That's the whole workflow. No sign-up, no setup screen, no permissions beyond what the extension actually needs.
✨ KEY FEATURES
One-click capture — save selected text straight from the right-click menu, from any site. ⚡
Automatic source tracking — each note keeps the page title and a link back to where you found it.
Instant search — filter through all your notes as you type, across text, title and URL. 🔍
Copy or delete in one click — hover any note to copy it to your clipboard or remove it.
Markdown export — download your entire note collection as a single, clean .md file, ready for Obsidian, Notion, or any text editor. 💾
Bilingual interface — use Snip It in English or French, switchable anytime from the options page. 🌍
Fully local & private — every note is stored on your device. Snip It has no backend server, sends no data anywhere, and includes no analytics. 🔒
Lightweight — built with vanilla JavaScript and Manifest V3, no bloated frameworks. 🪶
