  I don’t see a server, so shouldn’t this be "a collection of offline tools*? Throw in a service worker to cache everything (maybe it has one?) and there’s no reason to ever hit the server after first load.

    It’s the kind of thing I host so that no matter what device I’m sitting in front of, I can easily pull it up. Hence a server is needed.

    I find it so useful I pull it up almost every workday.

    So basically a browser extension? Actually it would be preferable in the Firefox sidebar vs a standalone site…

      There are lots of options:

      • extension, as you mentioned
      • Tauri app - like election, but uses system web view instead of baking in a browser
      • PWA - service workers to make it work offline in the browser

      Each is pretty easy, and the PWA means you can basically get the Tauri app feel for free.

  Hmmm… Interesting! I didn’t realize there was a fork, but then again, this is one of those tools I’ve had running for several months close to a year or so and never thought about it. The original dev, Corentin, has been working on many more new projects: bsky.app/profile/corentin.tech .

    Same for me, that’s why I shared it. I don’t know why he’s not merging PR’s because this fork tries to share everything back.

  IT tools is a really good looking app with a lot of tools, but I think it might also be the definition of choice paralysis lol

    It’s not like you approach it with “maybe I’ll convert json to xml today”.

    It’s for when you have a thing to do and know you can do it there.

      Yeah, for sure, it’s just remembering all of the things it can do seems pretty tricky lol

  I just had a quick play around with it, HEIC converter is something I didn’t know I needed (I have a large backup from my iPhone which has HEICs), and I like the .eml parser just to name a couple.

  I’ll be adding this to my server for sure. Thanks for sharing

    Strange, I’m pretty sure I did fill in the url. Or does attaching a picture change the post type so the url is not taken into account?

      Yeah it’s one or the other unfortunately
