Free tools for developers

The most-searched category on DevTools Hub — URL encoding, decoding, and Base64 conversions.

The single biggest source of search traffic — decoding claims, checking expiration, and JWT security.

Validate, lint, and visualize Docker Compose files — and make sense of container networking.

Validate, view, and convert OpenAPI/Swagger specs without leaving the browser.

Independent tools for the test data every project eventually needs — unique IDs, strong passwords, placeholder text — plus a way to check the strength of a password you already have. All run entirely in your browser.

Format, validate, diff, minify, convert, query, and schema-generate/validate JSON — ten tools for the format everything speaks. All run entirely in your browser.

Base64, URL, HTML, hex, and ASCII encoding and decoding, plus query string and full URL parsing, building, inspection, Unicode analysis, and string-literal escaping — sixteen tools for the encodings that show up constantly in web development. All run entirely in your browser.

Timestamps, timezones, and cron schedules — five tools for the two date-and-time problems every backend eventually runs into. All run entirely in your browser.

Everything for working with JSON Web Tokens, in one place — decode, understand, verify, build, and secure them. All eight tools run entirely in your browser; nothing you paste is ever sent anywhere.

MD5, SHA, checksums, HMAC, and password hashing — eight tools for hashing text, verifying files, and signing messages. All run entirely in your browser.

Build, test, visualize, debug, and escape for JavaScript regular expressions — six tools covering the whole regex workflow. All run entirely in your browser.

Format, validate, minify, diff, index-advise, and explain SQL — six tools covering readability, correctness, schema changes, and performance. All run entirely in your browser.

View, validate, diff, and put an OpenAPI/Swagger document to work — five tools covering the full spec lifecycle. All run entirely in your browser.

Validate, lint, format, and visualize Docker Compose files and Dockerfiles — five tools covering the whole Docker workflow. All run entirely in your browser.

Validate, visualize, lint, and audit secrets in GitHub Actions workflows — four tools covering correctness and security. All run entirely in your browser.

Validate, diff, and convert .env files — four tools for the dotenv format's real parsing rules and the gotchas that fail silently. All run entirely in your browser.

Validate, format, calculate resources, diff, explore relationships, and merge or compare Helm values for Kubernetes manifests — seven tools covering correctness, readability, and resource planning. All run entirely in your browser.

Validate and format YAML — syntax errors, duplicate keys, parser-version gotchas, and consistent indentation — schema-agnostic, for any YAML file. All run entirely in your browser.

Parse and build ARNs, generate, review, simulate, and minify IAM policies, validate tag policies, look up Regions, and validate CloudFormation templates — nine tools for everyday AWS work. All run entirely in your browser.

Format and validate GraphQL queries, mutations, and SDL schemas with the real reference parser. All run entirely in your browser.

Computer science fundamentals for practicing engineers — algorithm complexity, performance analysis, and scalability, with interactive tools and practical examples. All run entirely in your browser.

How the structures underneath every algorithm actually work — arrays, hash tables, trees, and more, visualized step by step. All run entirely in your browser.

Hash Table Visualizer

Watch a real hash function turn a key into a bucket index, and watch collisions happen.

Shortest Path Visualizer

Watch Dijkstra's and Bellman-Ford compute shortest paths — including where Dijkstra breaks.

Graph Traversal Visualizer

Watch Breadth-First Search and Depth-First Search explore a graph step by step.

Search Algorithm Visualizer

Watch Linear Search and Binary Search run step by step, with real comparison counts.

Algorithm Runtime Estimator

Turn a complexity class and input size into real hours, days, and years.

Recursion vs Iteration Visualizer

Watch a recursive call stack and an iterative loop solve the same problem side by side.
