Introducing BLACKBOX: The Fastest Way to Copy Code from Videos and Images
If you're a developer or someone who spends a lot of time
watching
coding videos, you know the struggle of wanting to grab code from a
video
or a shared screen on Zoom, Teams, or Meet. It can be frustrating to take a screenshot and then retype the whole code. But now, there's a solution that makes this process much easier - BLACKBOX.
The Benefits of BLACKBOX Chrome Extension
BLACKBOX is a powerful Chrome extension that revolutionizes the way developers extract code from videos and images. With just a few clicks, you can now effortlessly copy code snippets without the hassle of manual typing.
One of the standout features of BLACKBOX is its ability to preserve code indentation. When you copy code from a video or image, the indentation will be maintained, saving you precious time and effort.
Seamless Integration with Your Workflow
Whether you're working with Jupyter notebooks or Paperspace, BLACKBOX has got you covered. This top extension is compatible with popular coding platforms, allowing you to seamlessly integrate it into your daily workflow.
Considerations Before Using BLACKBOX
While BLACKBOX offers a convenient solution for copying code, it's essential to consider user reviews and potential drawbacks. Some users have reported issues such as the extension changing their default browser or unwanted additional extensions being installed. Privacy concerns have also been raised, highlighting the need for caution when dealing with sensitive information.
Additionally, BLACKBOX is not a free extension. You will need to pay for access to its features. Some users have also reported that the extension is slow and doesn't work well with PDFs.
Is BLACKBOX Right for You?
BLACKBOX can be a valuable tool for developers seeking a faster and more efficient way to copy code from videos and images. However, it's important to weigh the pros and cons to determine if it aligns with your specific needs and preferences.

Used to be amazing when copying was the primary feature (I had previously rated it 5 stars), but now that feature seems hidden with not many people knowing the shortcut for it and the rest of the extension practically being a reskinned chatgpt. I've listed the windows and mac shortcuts for copying below as they still work for me :D
alt + s to copy on windows
cmd + e to copy on mac

I don't know if it's a bug but I tried to use ctrl+E to get OCR to work but it doesn't seem to work instead the keyboard shortcut goes into the google search bar and ready to type something to search. Im on windows right now so I hope you guys are able to fix the shortcut or maybe change the shortcut to something that isn't taken.
