Polacode MK

Polacode — Polaroid for your code 📸

What's different in Polacode MK?

I personally use the remote (ssh) development setup most of the time, and found that the original Polacode does not support saving screenshots to my local machine. I would have to save screenshots in my remote drive and download it separately :( I decided to fix that one little bug.

I also made a small update to the default screenshot file path so that it doesn't assume I have a subdirectory Desktop in my home directory. For now, the default filepath includes an unix epoch timestamp to suggest an unique file name, but it doesn't change every time. Something to work on in a future version =)

Why?

You have spent countless hours finding the perfect JavaScript grammar, matching it with a sleek-looking VS Code theme, trying out all the best programming fonts.

You take three days porting over your theme before starting to use VS Code.
You shell out $200 for italic cursive html attributes.

The code has to look right.

Tips

• Resize the snippet / container by dragging the lowerright corner
• Use polacode.target, polacode.shadow, polacode.transparentBackground and polacode.backgroundColor to control image appearance
