Looks good. What framework are you using for the UI?

I'll stick with Snipaste because of the "pinning" feature - which is absolutely key for my workflow. Alongside copy, save etc. there is a "pin" that leaves the screenshot right there as topmost and you can resize it etc.

Also consider offering a download outside of the Microsoft Store? (some workplaces block the store, even if users are allowed to installed software)

I'm using WinUI 3. It's quite basic and lacks many features, but leveraging the Win API directly helps.

Yep, I'd also like to create an .exe later (I wasn’t aware of workplace restrictions), but I think building a website should come first.

Thanks a lot! Your notes were really helpful.
