How to Create Beautiful Code Snippets for Social Media

Sharing code on social media or in documentation can be a pain. Screenshots are often blurry, lack syntax highlighting context from your specific theme, or just look messy with IDE UI elements cluttering the frame.

Enter Snapcode, the ultimate tool for developers who want to share their work with style.

Why Visuals Matter for Code

In a feed full of text, a well-formatted, colorful image of code stands out. Whether you're:

• Asking for help on Twitter/X
• Showcasing a clever one-liner on LinkedIn
• documenting a feature for your team

...presentation matters. High-quality visuals increase engagement and make your code easier to read.
