""Important thoughts shouldn't stay buried in thousands of lines of code. If you left a reminder for your future self, it should be visible, organized, and easy to find.""
Sticky Notes is a clean, lightweight extension for Visual Studio Code. It automatically gathers all the reminders, warnings, and todo comments you leave in your code files—like // TODO, // FIXME, // BUG, and // HACK—and turns them into a colorful, interactive sidebar map.
Instead of writing notes on physical sticky notes on your desk or losing track of tasks buried in deep folders, Sticky Notes keeps your thoughts right beside your code, complete with clickable line navigation and margin badges.
Every developer leaves notes while coding:
The problem isn't that developers forget to take notes. The problem is that notes disappear into the page. When a project has 50 files and 10,000 lines of code, finding that one reminder you wrote last Thursday feels like looking for a needle in a haystack.
People try using external to-do apps, chat messages, or paper pads. But those fail for one simple reason: the reminder and the code are no longer in the same room.
The insight behind Sticky Notes is that different comments represent different human emotions and urgencies:
Instead of treating all comments as boring plain text, Sticky Notes gives each type its own color, icon, and sidebar category.
You don't need to learn a new syntax. Just type your normal comments as you build:
// TODO: Add caching layer for user profile
// FIXME: Handle network disconnect timeout
// HACK: Temporary fallback until API v2 launches
Sticky Notes instantly groups your notes in a dedicated panel on the VS Code sidebar. At a glance, you can see how many tasks, bugs, or warnings exist across your active file or entire workspace.
Clicking any note in the sidebar instantly takes you directly to that line in the file. No manual scrolling, no file searching.
Color-coded icons appear in the editor's left margin (gutter) next to the line numbers, making unfinished tasks stand out as you scroll. Hovering over a badge displays the note text immediately.
When you finish a task and delete or update the comment, it immediately disappears from the sidebar. Your list stays clean and honest.
