Description of the problem / feature request / question:

i created gist in lepton and it give me error gist creation failed because network was done

the gist was completely lost so i think it will be good in case of network down when gist creation is failed , it should save locally gist and when network is ok on sync it should create locally saved gists on github . Also it will be good if it maintain one local db for gists ,

Research direction
Investigate the current snippet storage mechanism in Lepton (likely using a JSON file). Determine if the app already uses any local database like nedb or lokijs. Design a solution that caches gist data locally (e.g., using SQLite or a simple file based store) and syncs with GitHub when online. Review existing comments in issue #264 for any proposed approaches.
