🚧 Work in Progress
CodeVault is currently under active development. Features, UI, and architecture may change as the project evolves.
CodeVault is a developer productivity tool designed to solve the “Déjà Code” problem — the frustration of knowing you’ve already written a piece of code but being unable to find it when you need it most.
Instead of digging through old GitHub repositories, random text files, or bookmarked StackOverflow answers, CodeVault provides a centralized, syntax-aware, and searchable cloud library for your personal code snippets.
Every developer encounters situations like:
- Forgetting a useful utility function written months ago
- Losing regex patterns, middleware logic, or configuration snippets
- Rewriting solutions that already exist somewhere else
Current solutions are fragmented and not optimized for code storage. Traditional note-taking apps lack syntax awareness and organization tailored for developers.
CodeVault treats code snippets as first-class citizens.
It is purpose-built for developers and focuses on:
- Writing code comfortably
- Organizing snippets intelligently
- Retrieving the right snippet instantly
-
