Oktoshot

RELEASED

A local-first native macOS app for creating polished code screenshots with syntax highlighting, presets, annotations, and reusable exports.

type: native macOS application
platform: macOS 15+
category: developer tools
author: Nicolae Nicolaev

The problem

Developers frequently send source code to browser-based screenshot tools just to create a presentable image. Oktoshot keeps private code on the Mac and turns the entire path from source to export into one focused native workflow.

Capabilities

Syntax highlighting with a live composition preview
Presets, annotations, and reusable export recipes
Batch export for repeatable workflows
Local processing with no account required

Engineering approach

Input, styling, rendering, and export remain inside the application. The product treats export as part of the editor, so repeated output stays fast, consistent, and private.
