Itsypad

Itsypad combines a lightweight text editor with a clipboard manager for macOS. It offers syntax highlighting for more than 185 programming languages, automatic language detection, and a multi‑tab interface that supports drag‑to‑reorder and split‑view panes. Find and replace, clickable links, markdown lists, and persistent cursor positions are included, and all tabs sync across devices via iCloud.

The clipboard component stores up to 1,000 entries of text or images, provides searchable history, and lets users copy or paste items with keyboard shortcuts (⌘ 1‑9 to copy, ⌥ 1‑9 to paste). A global hotkey can instantly reveal the clipboard, and the window can be pinned on top. Users can choose between a grid or panel layout for previewing entries, with configurable preview size and font.

Built with native AppKit and Swift, Itsypad runs without Electron or other runtimes, keeping the binary small and fast. It is open source, free to use, and includes no telemetry, making it suitable for developers who need a quick, persistent scratchpad and a robust clipboard history on macOS.
