Cool & easy ways to share your code online!

🧵Short Thread 🧵

#100DaysOfCode #DevCommunity
Have you ever wondered how do they create those shiny images to display their code snippets, tips, and exercises?

I did too when I started tweeting and eventually found someone recommending carbon app. Then I found some other options too.

Here is my top 4 ways to share code!
Myself and mostly Twitter´s favorite is the Carbon app:
http://carbon.now.sh 

You can directly use it with standard styles or customize it to your liking. To save this customization you can sign up using your github account.
2_ Polarcode

For the VSCode lovers we have an extension to take screenshots directly in VS Code, take a look at this GIF from their github repo, its pretty cool 🤙

3_ Greenshot

If you want more versatility and take a screenshot on whatever code editor or app you are using, can´t go wrong with Greenshot.

Free app, that allows you to take a screenshot from any portion of your screen and save it/export it as you want.
And last but not least the social media sharer:
4_ http://codeimg.io 

They offer social media templates, this way you don´t have to care about proportions. Other than that, similar to carbon.
Those are the top 4 tools I find useful for different scenarios so you can use the one that suits you better!
