How to share code snippets

Pasting code into a chat window usually mangles the formatting and loses syntax highlighting. NullPaste gives you a clean, highlighted, shareable link in a few seconds — no account required.

1. 1

   Open a new paste

   Go to the NullPaste home page. There's no sign-up — the editor is ready immediately.

2. 2

   Paste your code

   Drop your snippet into the editor (up to 1 MB). The language is auto-detected for syntax highlighting, or type the language name to set it explicitly.

3. 3

   Pick an expiry

   Choose how long the snippet should live — from 10 minutes to never. Use a short expiry for one-off reviews and 'never' (with a delete code) for snippets you want to keep.

4. 4

   Create and copy the link

   Hit Create paste and copy the short URL. Share it in chat, a ticket, or an email — anyone with the link sees the highlighted code.

Tips

• Sharing something sensitive? Turn on a password or end-to-end encryption.
• Only want one person to read it once? Use burn-after-read.
