Show HN: TurboGist – Real time code sharing without leaving your editor (turbogist.dev)

*Please try and read this if you're a developer, if you're not you can still try that out!!*

As a developer, I work within a team to build software. However, when I wanted to share a piece of code with my team members or ask for any suggestions on any business logic, classes, or functions, I needed to copy the code and send it via Microsoft Teams and Slack. I was thinking what if I could share that piece of code using my code editor that doesn't need to switch between screens which is clunky and time-consuming?

That was the actual pain point and motivation to build Turbogist, which lets you share codes in real time with others. Right now I only created the extension for VS Code and am working on building a plugin for JetBrains as well. First thing first, I want to validate the idea.

However, I have some plans to add some additional features that will integrate a seamless snippet and code sharing by integrating GitHub Gists or Pastebin-like services. You can try out the extension and see the tool in action by visiting the landing page and joining the beta.

Looking for your input on:

- How this would fit your workflow? - Must-have features or integrations (e.g., GitHub Gist, PasteBin, etc.)? - Pain points in your current code-sharing process?

Thank you for checking this out, looking forward to your feedback!
