    This is a project I've been working on since the start of Covid-19. I built an app so that I don't have to put data into online tools like JWT debugger, JSON formatter, URL decoder, etc... https://devutils.app The app works entirely offline and is open-source. I'm selling the pre-built version of the app to earn some revenue for my time. If you want to try the app but can't afford the price or don't have XCode to build the app, drop me an email (my profile), I'll be happy to provide you a free build. I would love to hear all the feedback/suggestions. Thanks!

    Hi everyone - Looking for feedback for this new open source project we launched. It's called DevPod and it's built on the devcontainer.json standard to create reproducible dev environments.

Compared to hosted services such as Github Codespaces, JetBrains Spaces, or Google Cloud Workstations, DevPod has the following advantages: - Open Source: DevPod is 100% open-source and extensible. A provider doesn’t exist? Just create your own. - Client-only: No need to install a server backend. DevPod…

    Hi HN, I’ve always been frustrated by "utility" websites that force you to upload sensitive JSON, JWTs, or proprietary code to mystery servers just to format or decode them. Most of the top-ranked tools on Google are essentially data-collection honeypots for ads. I built DevUtility Hub to be a professional-grade, browser-native workbench that operates on a Zero-Knowledge principle. The Architecture: 150+ Professional Tools: From standard JSON/Base64 to 2026-frontier tools like the MCP Protocol Inspector, ZKP Privacy Playground, and Agentic Workflow Visualizers. 100% Client-Side:…
