JIE007··on Em Dash Copy Paste
This project was created to solve a tiny but annoying problem: typing the em dash (—) isn’t straightforward on most keyboards. Instead of memorizing obscure shortcuts, you can just copy it instantly.

Over time, I added other useful characters too—like en dash, hyphen, and different quotation marks—so it’s a quick reference for writers, developers, and anyone who works with text.

It’s a minimal tool, but sometimes simple solutions save the most time.
