Latest tools
Helm Values Diff
Compare two Helm values configurations — each side merged the way Helm actually merges multiple -f files — and see exactly what's different.
Helm Values Viewer
Merge and flatten one or more values.yaml files the way Helm actually does — deep merge, arrays replaced not merged, null deletes a key.
Docker Network Inspector
Paste `docker network inspect` output and see what it means — driver, subnets, attached containers, and why name resolution isn't working.
CloudFormation Validator
Check a CloudFormation template's structure — sections, resources, and dangling Refs.
AWS Region Explorer
Search every AWS Region by code, name, or country — AZ count, opt-in status, partition.
IAM Policy Generator
Build an IAM policy statement from plain fields — effect, actions, resources, conditions.

How Helm actually merges multiple values files (deep merge for maps, full replacement for arrays, null deletes a key), why --set always wins over -f no matter the flag order, and the YAML 1.1 gotchas that silently turn "no" into false — all verified against a real Helm install.
Common Docker Compose Errors
A field guide to the docker-compose.yml mistakes that only surface at docker compose up — undeclared volumes and networks, malformed ports, undefined depends_on references, and why the once-famous YAML boolean-coercion trap no longer reproduces in current Compose.
Common SQL Syntax Errors
A field guide to the SQL mistakes that show up most often — trailing commas, unbalanced parens, quote-type mix-ups — verified against a real database, including the ones that don't error at all and just quietly return the wrong answer.
