 * Great environment to create and organise snippets.
 * Yet I was unable to find a way to add the shortcode for my snippets. I had to
   resort to [xyz scripts] that offers a shortcode for any snippet created. I guess
   I have missed something. Can you please help?

 * The name of the shortcode depends on what code you are using it to create it.
 * If the beginning of the code looks something like this:
 * `add_shortcode( 'something_here', function () {`
 * Then the shortcode to use will be `[somthing_here]`. The text between the `[]`
   will match whatever is in place of `something_here` in the code above.
