Show HN: OCR tools suck at extracting code, so I built Pixelcode (pixelcode.ai)

Hi everyone!

I built Pixelcode because i often find myself frustrated when implementing pieces of code from video tutorials. Common OCR tools are just not suited for extracting code snippets. They introduce weird characters, and you lose the code formatting, making you work even more to fix the extracted code.

That’s why I created Pixelcode. In one tap, you can take a screenshot of the code you want to extract and it’s directly copied to your clipboard. You can then paste the extracted code into your favourite IDE, well formatted and without weird characters. It works with more than 30+ languages.
