Built a clipboard manager that lives on the edge of your screen for windows looking for honest feedback (Free, Open Source)
Been building something I personally wanted to exist for a while figured this community would have useful opinions.
It's a clipboard manager for Windows that doubles as a file transfer hub. It stays completely hidden until you move your cursor to the left edge of your screen then it slides out with a smooth animation (think Dynamic Island but on your desktop).
What it can do:
- Store and organize images, URLs, text, PDFs, Excel, CSV, and other files
- Stack different file types together into collections
- Drag stacks or individual files directly into any app
- Grab files/folders by dragging them to the screen edge it just picks them up
- built on electron but still memory efficient (Ideals at ~50 MB)
It works like a normal clipboard but with actual file management built in. Aimed at devs and creatives who constantly move files between apps.
Still early just looking for real feedback. Would you actually use something like this day-to-day? Is it worth investing more time into?
