.gitignore Generator
Multi-select templates from GitHub's official .gitignore collection — languages, IDEs, operating systems — merged with section headers and duplicate rules removed. A secrets baseline (.env, keys, credentials) is always included. Stack presets cover common combos like Next.js or Python + Django; strict dotfiles mode ignores hidden files except .gitignore. Search templates, copy, download, or share a URL that restores your selection.
Runs 100% in your browser — nothing you paste leaves your device.

Notes
- Each block is labelled with its upstream GitHub template name; overlapping rules like .env or node_modules/ appear only once.
- A .gitignore only affects untracked files — use `git rm --cached` to stop tracking something already committed.
