About .gitignore Generator

Create a .gitignore from Templates

A .gitignore file tells Git which files and folders should stay out of version control. Ignoring dependency folders, build output, logs, caches, local environment files, and editor settings helps keep commits focused and reduces the chance of adding local-only files.

Templates for Node.js, Python, React, Next.js, and More

Choose templates for Node.js, Python, Java, Go, Rust, C/C++, Ruby, PHP, Swift, Kotlin, TypeScript, React, Next.js, Docker, and more. You can also add IDE and OS templates such as JetBrains, VS Code, macOS, Windows, and Linux. When the same pattern appears in multiple templates, the generator removes duplicate lines.

Add Project-Specific Ignore Rules

Use the custom patterns field for rules that are specific to your project, such as temporary files, internal tool output, or local configuration folders. Review the generated result on screen, then copy it or download it as a `.gitignore` file.

How to use .gitignore Generator

Select the templates matching your project: choose languages/frameworks (Node.js, Python, Java, TypeScript, React, Next.js, etc.) via checkboxes.
Also select your IDEs (JetBrains, VS Code) and operating systems (macOS, Windows, Linux) to fully reflect your project environment.
If you have project-specific exclusion patterns beyond the templates, add them one per line in the custom input field.
Review the generated .gitignore, then use 'Copy' to save to clipboard or 'Download' to get the .gitignore file directly.
