Typefire

TypeFire is a free text expander and snippet manager for macOS. Create snippets, assign short abbreviations, and they instantly expand as you type in any app on your Mac.

Type "zem" and your full email appears. Type "zsig" and your signature expands with today's date. Type "zmeet" and your meeting notes template drops in with clipboard content auto-injected.

Key features:

• Abbreviation expansion that works in every Mac app including Terminal
• Dynamic tokens: date, time, clipboard content, cursor positioning
• Rich text editor with fonts, colors, and highlights
• Markdown snippets that expand as formatted HTML
• Global keyboard shortcuts for any snippet
• Spotlight-style fuzzy search launcher
• JavaScript and AppleScript script snippets
• Collections, tags, and favorites for organization
• iCloud Sync across Macs
• Import from TextExpander (CSV and legacy formats)

TypeFire is a native macOS app built with Tauri and Rust. It uses minimal memory and runs entirely on your Mac. Snippets are stored as plain Markdown files with no vendor lock-in.

Completely free with no subscription, no trial period, no feature limits, and no paid tier.
