**paste is a simple web app for writing & sharing code.** It's my own take on conventional pastebin sites like _pastebin.com_ or _hastebin_.

### Host your own
### Self-hosting
It's quite simple to host your own version.
The easiest way to self-host is using Docker (& Docker Compose). You can run the following commands to get started:
```bash
git clone https://github.com/lucko/paste
cd paste
yarn install
# Outputs html/css/js files to /build
yarn build
# Start a webserver for testing/development
yarn start
```
You can then follow the [create-react-app deployment documentation](https://create-react-app.dev/docs/deployment/) for how to host the build output. I personally recommend deploying to the cloud using a service like Netlify instead of hosting on your own webserver.
If you really want to self-host (including the bytebin data storage part), I suggest using Docker:
```bash
git clone https://github.com/lucko/paste
docker compose up -d
```
