What is Osmynt?

Osmynt solves the frustrating experience of sharing code blocks with your team. Instead of:

  • 📧 Emailing code snippets (context gets lost, formatting breaks)
  • 💬 Using Slack/Teams (no syntax highlighting, poor readability)
  • 📺 Screen sharing (disrupts workflow, requires scheduling)
  • 🔗 Third-party platforms (complex setup, context switching)

Osmynt brings secure, real-time code sharing directly into your VS Code editor.
