Clipper is a versatile clipboard management and note-taking application designed specifically for developers. It runs on Mac and Linux, leveraging the Tauri framework for a lightweight and secure experience. With Clipper, accessing your clipboard history and jotting down notes becomes seamless and integrated into your development workflow.
The app itself is secure, however, your clipboard might see your passwords if you manually copy them. Usually it is recommended that you autofill fields that skips clipboard involvement. No efforts have made so far to detect passwords or ignore copied passwords, yet.
- 👉 Global Shortcut 🍎 CMD + OPT + C and 🐧 CTRL + ALT + C

Before you install Clipper, ensure you have the following:
- PNPM (9+) from https://pnpm.io/
- Node.js (LTS version 22+) https://nodejs.org/en
- Rust (rustc 1.82.0 (f6e511eec 2024-10-15)) https://www.rust-lang.org/
- Tauri CLI from https://tauri.app/
You can install Tauri CLI by running:
cargo install tauri-cli
To get started with Clipper, clone the repository to your local machine:
git clone https://github.com/anuradhawick/clipper.git
cd clipper
To run Clipper locally, use:
pnpm install
pnpm tauri dev
To build a production version of Clipper, execute:
pnpm tauri build
Compiling in Mac is very easy and can be tricky on Linux. Please follow the guidelines here.
In rare cases, updates could change database schema needing to reset the database. While I implement migrations for future releases, please delete db file using the settings view. You will loose all you clipboard entries from Clipper.
