Shared Clipboard app

Have a easy to remember same clipboard URL forever for your entire pastebin needs!

Introduction

This project is like pastebin, with one key difference. When I want to share a snippet (or clip), I can tell them to go to the same URL every time I need to share a different one. It is very easy!

Motivation

Recently, while using pastebin, me and my friends found using WhatsApp, Email or similar text services to share the link generated by pastebin. Which I found to be an extreme antipattern. Therefore, I thought emails are an asy to remember string!

Features

• No need to share garbage strings like Jdjslv, etc! Just use Email!
• Choose between private and public clips
• Hide clips with ease
• Familiar and secure Google Sign In!
• Copy button to copy long text conveniently

How to use (Scnario: Private clips)

• Say user 1 (user1@gmail.com) wants to share string "abc" to user 2(user2@gmail.com)
• User 1 logs in, makes a new clip with the content "abc" and allows user2@gmail.com.
• User 2 goes to shared-clipboard.com/user1@gmail.com
• Signs in using Google using the email ID user2@gmail.com
• Voila! Can see the shared text securely!

How to use (Scenario: Public clips)

• Say user 1 (user1@gmail.com) wants to share string "abc" to user 2 or any other user (Can be multiple too)!
• User 1 logs in, makes a new clip with the content "abc".
• Now any user can go to shared-clipboard.com/user1@gmail.com
• And can access the shared text!
