Introduction

Gists are a nice way to share code snippets fast and easy. Unfortunately gists have some downsides in their management capabilities.

Gists can be created via web interface and api but lack a unified management experience. If you want to manage gists locally you require git to do so, which can become cumbersome when managing dozens of gists, as every gist is a git repository with all its overhead and no sub directory feature (repo inside a repo).

This is where the gistmanroh extension focuses on, it implements a unified management interface in VSCode. To keep the functionality as simple as possible only the CRUD (Create, Rename, Update, Delete) operations are supported.

Features

The gistmanroh extension implements all CRUD functionality of the github api.

You can:

  • create gists (public and secret)
  • remove gists and files from gists
  • add files to gists
  • update gist files (file content)
  • rename gist files.

  • Context Menu
