Pixelcode Product Information

Pixelcode is a developer-focused tool that automates turning code screenshots, videos, images, and PDFs into editable, properly formatted code. Accessible via a Chrome extension, it captures code snippets from your screen and instantly places correctly formatted code into your clipboard for quick pasting into your IDE. It supports automatic language recognition across 30+ programming languages and emphasizes speed, accuracy, and convenience for developers creating tutorials, documentation, or workflows from visual code sources.

How Pixelcode Works

  1. Install the Chrome extension. Add Pixelcode to your browser for on-the-fly code extraction.
  2. Capture the code snippet. Use the extension to select the code you want to extract from screenshots, videos, or PDFs.
  3. Auto-format and copy. The code is automatically recognized, formatted, and copied to your clipboard.
  4. Paste into your editor. Open your IDE and paste the ready-to-use code snippet.

Pixelcode is designed to save time by preserving code formatting and structure as captured, minimizing the need for manual retyping or reformatting.

How to Use Pixelcode

  • Install the Pixelcode Chrome extension from the Chrome Web Store.
  • Click the Pixelcode extension icon in your browser.
  • Capture the code snippet from your screen (lines can range from a few lines to hundreds).
  • The extracted code is copied to your clipboard automatically.
  • Paste the code into your preferred editor.
