What are Coding Snacks?
Coding Snacks represent the best of DonationCoder.
On a special section of our forum, anyone can post an idea for a small custom utility/program.
Coders who hang out on our forum keep an eye out for interesting requests and when they see one that catches their interest, they code it and release it to the public for free.
People who find the tools useful are encouraged to donate directly to the coders to show their appreciation.

Check out the new free software and fun stuff released as part of our NANY (New Apps for the New Year) 2018 event on January 1, 2018: here.
Since 2007 we have held an annual event that we call NANY (New Apps for the New Year), where we ask the coders who hang out on DonationCoder to create some new piece of free software and share it with the world on January 1st of the new year. NANY is really the funnest thing we do on this site, and it's one of the few times we can all play together. There are no winners or losers, it's simply a celebration of programming and creating new software and sharing it with the world.

New App! File/Folder Date OrganizerThis little app will search through a selected folder and
reorganize everything in that folder (keeping relative paths intact) into dated folders. need an example? ok: let's say you have the following folders c:\my stuff\something old (files in this folder are dated Feb. 2005) c:\my stuff\something new (files in this folder are dated Mar. 2008) Select 'c:\my stuff' as the search folder and you'll end up with this: c:\my stuff\2005-02\something old c:\my stuff\2008-03\something new seems simple and useless... that is, of course, unless you have literally hundreds of folders and random file sitting in that folder! How does it work? All files in the root folder are treated as separate entities and put into their respective dated folders based on their own file date. All folders in the search directory are kept in the exact path structure as they sit in that folder. The date is determined by the newest file date found within that folder and it's subfolders. Because of this, it ideally works with folders that only have one level of subfolders within itself. If you use this in folders that have multiple layers of nested folders, the files/folders being moved to a dated folder will all be grouped by the very latest file within that entire tree! |
