Trove
Trove's three-pane workspace: a library sidebar with folders and tags, a list of code snippets, and a Markdown editor with live preview.

Snippets

Code and context, together.

Every snippet keeps your code in its own language, with syntax highlighting and a Markdown note for the why — usage, gotchas, links — previewed live right beside it.

  • Syntax highlighting for 480+ languages
  • Markdown notes with live preview
  • Copy a snippet with ⌘↩
Avatar.tsx TypeScript 
export function Avatar({ src, size = 40 }) {
  return (
    <img
      className="avatar"
      src={src}
      width={size}
      height={size}
    />
  )
}
Avatar — circular profile image. Pass size in px; defaults to 40.

Semantic search

Search by meaning,
not just keywords.

Type what you're trying to do — and Trove ranks results by what you mean, with AI that runs entirely on your device. No cloud, no API keys, fully offline. Stack it with filters for pinpoint precision.

Organize your way

Folders, smart groups, and tags.

Nest folders with colors and a default language. Build Smart Groups — live, saved rule sets that gather snippets automatically by tag, language, date, favorites, and more. Tag freely with a flexible many-to-many model.

  • Recursive snippet counts & an Uncategorized bucket
  • Match all or any of your conditions
  • Favorites & pinning float to the top

Powerful search syntax

Filter with precision.

Scoped filters, booleans, negation, exact phrases, and wildcards — combine them however you like.

tag:react lang:typescript OR -deprecated "use effect" hook*
scoped filters boolean OR / AND negation exact phrase wildcards

Optional sync

Sync across devices.
Privately.

Back up through a private, app-only folder in your Google Drive — or mirror your library through any shared folder (Dropbox, iCloud Drive, a NAS). Off by default, and edits from different devices are reconciled automatically, so nothing is ever lost.

  • Google Drive: one-click connect, no setup required
  • Folder sync: point any device at the same folder
  • Auto-sync a few seconds after you stop editing
  • Conflicts backed up before every merge
Trove's Settings panel with Cloud Sync (Google Drive) and the new Folder Sync option for syncing through a shared folder.
