Variables

Variables make snippets dynamic. Insert a placeholder and Korte fills it at expansion time — either automatically or by prompting you.

Types

• Text — prompts you to type a value when you expand.
• Date & Time — auto-filled with the current date/time.
• Clipboard — pastes your current clipboard content.
• URL — inserts the current page URL.

Custom date & time formats

Date/time variables accept a custom format. You can set it in the snippet editor, or inline in the content using the token syntax:

{{date:YYYY-MM-DD}}
{{time:HH:mm}}
{{date:DD/MM/YYYY|+1D}}   // shift: tomorrow

Format tokens

• YYYY / YY — year · MMMM / MMM / MM / M — month · DD / D — day
• dddd / ddd — weekday · HH / H / hh / h — hour · mm — minute · ss — second · A / a — AM/PM
• [text] — literal text (e.g. [at] HH:mm)

Shift

Append a shift after a “|” to offset the value (case-insensitive): Y year, MO month, W week, D day, H hour, M minute, S second. Examples: +1D (tomorrow), -2H, +30M.
