Using GistBox Natively on Mac OS

Using GistBox Natively on MacOSX

So you've discovered Gists for organising and sharing (pseudo) code snippets, and you've discovered the beautiful GistBox as an interface for your gists. You feel like you just want it as a standalone app though, well...

1. Download and install Fluid

Download fluid to create a Site Specific Browser (SSB) (The free version is fine, but the paid version lets you anchor it in your menubar!). Fluid is an application that makes any web-app you commonly use into a standalone app. For those inclined you can install fluid via Homebrew cask with brew cask install fluid

Once you've installed fluid open the application and enter the following information to set up GistBox and click create.

Here are some things you can do with Gists in GistBox.
// Use Gists to store code you would like to remember later on
console.log(window); // log the "window" object to the console

Software for scientists

Some things takes much less time and stress once you know the right tool. Below, there is a community edited list of software for scientists.

Text editors

in General purpose text/code editors. It may be better to have a good editor for everything, than different ones for different languages, scripts, notes.
