Pieces for Developers ⎸ Web Extension

In 2022, our team set out on a journey to build the most advanced code snippet management and workflow context platform yet.

The debut release of our Flagship Desktop App got the ball rolling, and now our Web Extension aims to take developers' productivity to the next level, incorporating key capabilities and our users favorite features directly into their browser.

Take your coding research & problem-solving in the browser to the next level with the Pieces Copilot. Interact with the copilot from any webpage right within your browser’s side panel.

I've been using Pieces for Firefox for a while now, and it's pretty useful. The standout feature is how easily it saves code snippets, images, and text with just a click. Its search function is solid, helping me find saved items quickly. I like the AI suggestions too - they're often on point. However, it's not all perfect. The interface took some getting used to, and sometimes it feels a bit cluttered. Also, occasionally it slows down my browsing, especially when I have many tabs open. Despite these minor issues, it's still a handy tool for organizing online information, saving me time on research and coding tasks.

I love this extension, I use it everywhere, VS Code, Obsidian and Firefox because it helps me save all the code snippets I see along the way in one centralized place.
