NoPaste is an open-source website similar to Pastebin where you can store any piece of code, and generate links for easy sharing.
However, what makes NoPaste special is that it works with no database, and no back-end code. Instead, the data is compressed and stored entirely in the link that you share, nowhere else!
This is free and open source software. It can be self-hosted.
Features include:
- Compresses the whole text using the LZMA algorithm, encodes it in Base64.
- Embedded NoPaste snippets – include NoPaste code snippets into your own website by clicking the Embed button and using the generated HTML code.
- Offline usage.
- Editor:
- Syntax highlighting (use the language selector).
- Enable / disable line wrapping (use the button next to the language selector).
- Delete line (Ctrl+D).
- Multiple cursors (Ctrl+Click).
- Usual keyboard shortuts (Ctrl+A, Ctrl+Z, Ctrl+Y…).
- Your data cannot be deleted from NoPaste.
- Your data cannot be censored.
- The server hosting NoPaste (or any clone of it) cannot read or access your data
- Your data will be accessible forever (as long as you have the link).
- You can access your data on every NoPaste clone, including your own.
- Google will not index your data, even if your link is public.
- NoPaste links can be created easily from your system’s command line.
