File saves as .gitignore — place at the root of your repository.
Generate a clean .gitignore file by selecting your stack — Node, Python, Java, Go, Rust, Next.js, Django, macOS, Windows, JetBrains, VSCode, and more. Combines official GitHub gitignore templates with sensible defaults, deduplicated automatically. Fully offline — no API calls.
The .gitignore Generator streamlines the creation of clean and accurate gitignore files by allowing you to combine multiple official templates for languages, frameworks, and operating systems. It automatically handles deduplication and runs fully offline without making any API calls, ensuring privacy and speed. Because it requires no installation or account creation, you can quickly generate boilerplate configurations directly in your browser.
Good to know: Projects requiring highly customized ignore rules beyond standard language and tool templates may need manual file editing.
Quickly create a customized .gitignore file for your project by combining templates for languages, frameworks, and IDEs.
Select your project stack
Browse the list of supported technologies like Node, Python, or Next.js and click to add them to your configuration.
Add development tools and IDEs
Include templates for your specific environment, such as VSCode, JetBrains, macOS, or Windows, to ignore system-specific files.
Review the generated output
The tool automatically combines and deduplicates the official GitHub templates into a single, clean file structure.
