### 4/5 — Comodissimo

*2026-06-28, version 2.1.2*

E veramente comodo sopratutto se come me si scrivono tutorial sull’uso di vari linguaggi di programmazione.

### 5/5 — Outstanding app!

*2026-04-13, version 2.1*

Update in April 2026: Still an amazing app. Huge time saver for presenting code in blog tutorials. Can’t recommend enough.

### 5/5 — Works like a charm

*2026-04-07, version 1.1.4*

Easy to use for crafting code images

### 4/5 — Great Potential

*2026-04-03*

The presentation feature is nice, but the app feels incomplete.  I suggest it be tailored more to a code snippet repository functionality.  The left pane could be dedicated to storing actual snippets in a way that is easily copied to clipboard.  Then the pretty presentation can be the feature with its options on the right pane. That gives this app more consistent utility.  Too many apps only do one or the other, but it is best to integrate both.  The UI design is nice.

### 5/5 — Weirdly specific app

*2026-03-28*

I like it. Makes it way more nicer to look at when I send my classmates code for them to reference

### 5/5 — What a beautiful little app

*2026-02-08, version 2.1*

I was always wondering what is used for creating social beautiful posts for presenting codes. Well this is it!

### 2/5 — Sus

*2026-02-03, version 2.1*

The 'Upgrade' button shows a price of 0.00, and that looks super sketchy. Why prompt for an upgrade if there's no cost? I’d love to support the app, but the confusing pricing makes me not trust it.

### 1/5 — Was first class

*2026-01-23*

Hasnt been updated and it inserts messed up parsing syntax into the images it exports so it kinda has no practical use anymore

### 5/5 — Best code presentation app ever

*2025-10-02, version 2.0.5*

I got a promotion because I used this instead of VS-Code’s bad UI & UX

### 5/5 — Beautiful

*2025-09-16, version 1.1.4*

This is represents the code so beautifully
