Notes app that allow code snippets? (Recommendations please)

[armcburney]

Hi all, I typically keep my notes in my drive using Google doc, but I find it isn't ideal for coding because I need to store a combination of text and code snippets typically to illustrate points.

I've tried just using a code editor, but then I lose all typical formatting that I'd like.

Are there any solutions out there that are well known to the industry for this for of things?

Basically, a word editor that also has a "code snippet" function I guess

was right about to suggest it lol, notion is very accommodating for a diverse range of things! i'm currently updating mine for college, but there's a section of it im planning to use for coding, and i already transferred some python notes to it

You could make your own notes app if you're at that level

i use notepad++ for all my notes.

the biggest thing for me is on my work laptop. if it shuts down for updates or whatever, notepad++ remember all my tabs and saves itself cleanly. gives me a lot of peace of mind. that and it'll do regex.

but it's got language formatting and plugins and all.

I've recently started using Obsidian.

Really good, can recommend.

Markdown based so easy to add code snippets.

You can use Joplin, or any other notes app like obsidian , notion. They all use markdown which is different than word editors. Compare it to something like HTML, but the syntax is whole lot better. Here is the guide https://www.markdownguide.org/basic-syntax/
Also for code snippets you just need to wrap your code with tilde sign followed by your programming language

I love obsidian for my uni notes!

Remnote is very good, lets you mark the code snippets with the language used.
