    Hi @tshepo, Welcome to IH! 👋

    Metacode.app is really interesting! Have you had a chance to observe developers or learners using it enough to have opinions about it? Curious how you'd describe the benifits / tradeoffs...

      Thanks, and good to be here! Two biggest pieces of feedback/observations:

      1. Requests for integration into IDEs so they don't have to switch between windows.
      2. People rarely add their own snippets since it's too annoying to manually go through their repository and add them.

      I addressed IDE support by creating a menu bar shortcut ⌥⌘M accessible from anywhere, like Spotlight. This week I've been working on code snippet abstraction from normal code files so users can "sync" custom snippets without having to add them manually. When I mentioned this, one person said "I'd definitely pay for that!" so fingers crossed haha 🤞
