One of my favorite examples of a small, successful dev tool is https://getcssscan.com https://getcssscan.com. You can already see styles in your browser dev tools for free, but this tool is just so much faster/easier that people are happy to pay (dev has done $70k in sales). As a starting point, it might be worth exploring other browser dev tool features and consider what each would look like if turned into a product.
Another space that has a lot of potential is tooling that helps people skip the boilerplate that goes into setting up a new project. I'm working on one for React at https://divjoy.com https://divjoy.com, but I'm sure there are a bunch of other ways to make project setup easier.
- oscar_franco13 7y agogetcssscan is great, aren't extensions easy to pirate? that would be one concern of mine After writing this yesterday I had an idea about stress testing, I had to test a few of my services in the past, but it has always been a combination of scripts and/or postman requests, it all feels very tedious, I saw there are already big SaaS players in the market, for example loader.io from sendgrid, but I feel like there is space for a simple tool, postman like, where I can just quickly configure some parameters and fire away from my machine... If things go well and there is more demand for it, it can be integrated with a SaaS backing, WDYT?
