Keep code snippets and terminal commands close by

Some commands are useful enough to keep, but not frequent enough to memorize. Save them with a clear name, alongside the snippets and review comments you use regularly.

Commands and comments, named for the task

Keep line breaks, indentation and quoting in the saved text. Review commands for the current project before running them.

Example commands

  1. ⌘1git log --oneline --graph --decorate -20
  2. ⌘2git bisect start HEAD v2.4.0
  3. ⌘3git rebase -i --autosquash origin/main
  4. ⌘4git commit --fixup HEAD~2
  5. ⌘5docker compose up -d --build --remove-orphans
  6. ⌘6kubectl rollout restart deploy/api
  7. ⌘7npm run build && npm run lint

Example review comments

  1. ⌘8

    Could we add a test for the empty input before merging?

  2. ⌘9

    The error is caught here, but the caller never receives it. Could we return it?

Library

A folder for each project or task

Keep Git commands, container commands, starter code and commit conventions together. Give cards names that describe when to use them. Search names and contents when you cannot remember the exact command.

A multiline snippet saved as one card

docker compose run --rm api \
  sh -lc 'npm ci \
    && npm run migrate \
    && npm test'

Sync

Bring your snippets to another device

Premium cloud sync keeps saved cards available across your devices. Update a snippet on one Mac and access it from your other devices without copying it into a message to yourself.
