Open Source Sharing: Snippets of Your Code as Generalized Caching

[Juice10]

What: Allow selective sharing of code snippets to a global, open source library. If you’re solving a common problem, you can “cache” it for others to reuse directly.
Why: Cut down on redundant solution-building—especially for boilerplate tasks.
Questions:
How do we identify which snippets are worth generalizing?
How do we handle versioning, licensing, or security concerns for shared snippets?
Should we store metadata (language, frameworks, dependencies) for easier discovery?
Let’s brainstorm how to safely and efficiently share code to benefit the wider community, while respecting licensing and privacy.
