About:
TeaCode is a text expansion utility designed to accelerate coding and writing workflows through customizable snippets. It allows developers to define short abbreviations that expand into complex code blocks or templates, significantly reducing repetitive typing. The tool integrates system-wide, enabling its functionality across various text editors and applications.

Key Features:

Dynamic placeholders with default values
Nested snippets for complex expansions
System-wide integration across macOS apps
Support for multiple programming languages
Export/import functionality for sharing snippet sets

Use Cases:

Inserting boilerplate code structures (e.g., loops, classes) instantly
Automating repetitive email responses or documentation templates
Standardizing code snippets across a development team

Alternatives:

TextExpander – More expensive subscription model, TeaCode offers a one-time purchase
Espanso – Open-source and cross-platform, but requires YAML configuration vs TeaCode's GUI
