151 pointsby KodyBerns99over 2 years ago
This is just a side hustle but I ended developing 300+ tools. Any feedback or suggestion is welcome.

For many of these manipulations, I use <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;gchq.github.io&#x2F;CyberChef&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;gchq.github.io&#x2F;CyberChef&#x2F;</a> which lets you pipe them together.

A small detail that you can improve UX would be to ensure that the button to execute a task is focused when you hit the tab key. In some of your tools I need to hit the tab key two or three times until I get to the execute&#x2F;do button. Usually the delete and copy buttons are focused first. I would believe most people want to just enter their payload hit tab and enter and get their result... As mentioned this is a small detail, great work overall!

There used to be a programmers calculator who&#x27;s proper name I forgot with most of these as a part of it.<p>I assume this was a programming experiment, so congratulations for pulling through.<p>I&#x27;m generally not a fan of these sensationalist titles though.

I love this! I can&#x27;t believe there hasn&#x27;t been anything even close to this before. Usually, sites that have even one or two of the converters (such as the base64 ones) are riddled with ads or just low-quality.

Excellent work! Simple, searchable, well documented. The tiniest of nits: the options on the right side of the page let you see a category of tools, but there isn&#x27;t an option to see all tools again

Still very much a WIP, but I created a similar project where you can create your own.<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;texttransform.io&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;texttransform.io&#x2F;</a><p>@kodyberns I&#x27;d love to collab!

Nice work! Bookmarked. Any plans to add openssl tools? I keep finding myself needing to convert x509 certs to text, and of course there is the never ending question of how do I generate my own SSL certificates. I guess it would be awesome if many of the most frequent questions on StackOverflow had a &quot;kody tool&quot; answer. I&#x27;m saying this because I think many conceivably could.

This is great. I really like the idea of gathering a bunch of one’s own tools together under a single web page like this - for visibility, for convenience, and to give you the freedom to quickly add GUI elements like graphs.<p>Not a web dev though. Kody, could you talk a bit about what libraries or framework you used for the front end here?

Your HTML to Markdown is pretty off.<p>&lt;h1&gt;Test&lt;&#x2F;h1&gt;<p>&lt;h2&gt;Test2&lt;&#x2F;h2&gt;<p>&lt;h3&gt;Test3&lt;&#x2F;h3&gt;<p>&lt;ul&gt;<p><pre><code> &lt;li&gt;List1&lt;&#x2F;li&gt; </code></pre> &lt;&#x2F;ul&gt;<p>Gets converted to<p>Test<p>====<p>Test2<p>-----<p>### Test3<p>* List1<p>When it should be<p># Test<p>## Test2<p>### Test3<p>• List1<p>EDIT: Actually looking more into it it seems it&#x27;s just using more uncommon ways of doing headers. Guess I didn&#x27;t know about the alternate methods

Nice work. You might wanna add a simple explainer text in the tool page, it would help understand some of them by the uninitiated (chaldean numerology?) and would probably help indexing too :)

Great work Kody! Thanks.<p>One thing I was hoping to see—-remove MS Word induced junk like “Smart quotes” and “smart apostrophes” and whatever else tends to blow up web text when importing or displaying.

This is great!<p>A tiny, insignificant piece of feedback: if I’m searching and there’s only one result, can Return automatically pick that one? Or maybe just the top result.

&gt; HTML to PHP Converter<p>&gt; literally wraps the entire input in a single echo()<p>I don&#x27;t know what else I expected, but what on earth would be the point of this tool?

The IRR calculator % formatting is wrong.<p>Original: [1000], Flows: [100, 200, 900] Shows: 0.07%, should be: 7.11%

not sure how to pull it off, but I think left-aligned tool names would help for readability, the search is helpful<p>also a tabbed&#x2F;categorized view where the tools are grouped by use&#x2F;topic (guess that&#x27;s the bit on the right)

Do you have any contact information? I couldn&#x27;t find any on your site.

Is it all web based or a web interface to command line tools?

I imagine OP might create a tonne of tools in coming days now that ChatGPT can help in writing code.
