* Create **system-wide** code snippets.
* Execute **custom scripts**
* Use **emojis** like a pro.

**Key Features**

* Works on **Windows**, **macOS** and **Linux**
* Works with almost **any program**
* Works with **Emojis** 😄
* Works with **Images**
* **Date** expansion support
* **Custom scripts** support
* **Shell commands** support
* **App-specific** configurations
* Expandable with **packages**
* Built-in **package manager** for [espanso hub](<https://hub.espanso.org/>)
