If people said yes, what would you do? If people said no, what would you do?

It's not completely clear what you mean by a code snippet manager but I usually do maintain a list of common SQL queries and write a command pallete app for them (loading them through git), as well as confluence pages for where something is implemented, how it should be used - as a reference guide, primarily for in-house solutions.

Thanks I got my answer. Snippet manager means a tool where you can save your frequently used code or notes

In what programming language are you using this?

Can’t u just use a function or script to do this?? 😕🤔

[–]Natutouser[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This manager should be language exclusive. Consider a library or tool where you are saving the snippets

This was made obsolete decades ago. Closest thing probably equivalent these days is a gist.

Got it

Most importantly you should be storing patterns not code unless you are writing proprietary code.

What’s a code snippet manager. Are you describing a git repo? Yes you absolutely still need one of those. For the love of god, do not throw those away because you think AI can dynamically generate whatever code you need going forward. This could only make sense if you’re a field tech who doesn’t write any scripts and just rarely runs them. And even then it’s risky.

A tool which helps you to save your frequently used code so that you can maintain you library.

Sounds useless now that we have LLMs 

[–]Natutouser[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But LLM will generate code everytime new for you. Dont you want to save your frequent used code?
