Gitignore Generator
Generate a practical .gitignore from common stack templates.
A .gitignore for your stack
Every project should ignore build output, dependencies, and secrets, but remembering the exact patterns for each stack is a chore. This generator builds a practical .gitignore from common templates, so you start with sensible rules instead of a blank file.
Pick the languages and tools your project uses and it assembles the matching ignore patterns. Copy the result into your repo root to keep node_modules, dist folders, .env files, and editor cruft out of version control from commit one.
Private and instant
Everything runs locally in your browser using standard web APIs — nothing is uploaded, logged, or stored on any server — so the tool works offline, responds instantly, and keeps whatever you paste in on your own device. That makes it safe to use even for confidential, client, or internal data you would never send to an unknown website.
