Show HN: Private front-end code playgrounds

Super excited to share this small project I built over the weekend. This is a front-end code playground inspired by my recurring need to quickly test something out in a pristine environment i.e. new tab.

- Supports HTML, CSS, JavaScript - Easy to share with others 1. CMD/Control + S 2. Share the URL - Opens in an instant - Private by design (nothing is stored because there is no server) - No tracking - No account to manage

My first submission on Hacker News. Yay!

Great work! Have you found a way to compress/shorten the urls?

I built something similar[1] a while ago, but the urls are still too long for sharing without a shortener. I'm using lz-string[2].

I like it - and I think this will be my go to.

You see I don't often need to save stuff I play with, I almost never need to share, and if I want JQuery there is a CDN, so I will take the simplicity and fast loading of your site over other playgrounds out there.

I've linked to you from "Utilities" page in the site in my profile.
