DevToys – A Swiss army knife for developers
- stokedbits 3y agoAdvantages over https://gchq.github.io/CyberChef/ https://gchq.github.io/CyberChef/?
- plasticsoprano 3y agoCame to ask the same thing. Save CyberChef for offline use and it does way more than this.

- justin_oaks 3y agoOne strong advantage of CyberChef is being cross platform. I use it regularly on my Linux machine at work. DevToys is Windows only.
- hk1337 3y agoMy first question was, "Why wouldn't this be a web application?" Honestly though, this looks nicer than CyberChef
- rockostrich 3y agoThe issue with web applications is that you need to do due diligence to make sure that it won't send any of the data you're pasting in to some remote server. FWIW you need to do this with third party tools in general.
- diimdeep 3y agoNice try 4 letter agency, but seriously doesn't look like it's phoning home, unless there is check for opened devtools in browser ;).
- sanitycheck 3y agoThat's so interesting, GCHQ! I don't know if that makes me trust it more or less than other random code online. (It's a little like installing some nice free software from the friendly people at the NSA, in case you're unfamiliar.) I did have a quick look at the repo, in case there were some useful security practices I could learn from. But it's just your standard NPM dependencies with a 20K-line package-lock.json. I wonder if perhaps they don't use it internally. Or if they do, perhaps they shouldn't.
- malikNF 3y agowow! I didn't know how badly I wanted this. Thanks!
- drcongo 3y agoSee also DevUtils for Mac: https://devutils.com https://devutils.com
- davely 3y agoOh, wow. I was excited for this but the website sure doesn’t make it obvious that most features are locked behind a paywall. (Sure, I see the very small pricing link in the header nav now.)
- FemmeAndroid 3y agoThis is incredible! Definitely worth the price for me. Thank you for mentioning it!
- xavdid 3y agoThere's also Boop, which is open source: https://github.com/IvanMathy/Boop https://github.com/IvanMathy/Boop
- literallyroy 3y agoI’d recommend [Boop](https://apps.apple.com/us/app/boop/id1518425043?mt=12 https://apps.apple.com/us/app/boop/id1518425043?mt=12). It’s free and open source.

- calini 3y agoIt's a sad state of affairs to see apps having to advertise themselves as 'offline'
- deleted 3y ago[deleted]
- cfn 3y agoAnd they used to be called Desktop Apps, or am I missing something?
- corytheboyd 3y agoI think desktop app and native app get used interchangeably, not necessarily offline app. There are also plenty of desktop/native apps that are very much not offline.
- someguy7250 3y agoI think it's sadder that developers would rather use an app rather than learning the proper command line for basic things like decoding base64
- koromak 3y agoThis is just elitism. Its guaranteed to be faster to copy and paste your snippet into an app, and have the app automatically detect the transformation you want to apply.
- someguy7250 3y agoSure. I'm the elitist, the coder who can't keep his job for longer than 2 years because he doesn't have any soft skill. At the moment I am literally considering quitting (my second job), working at a phone repair shop instead of programming, exactly because people at work prefer your kind of coders than enthusiasts like me. Thank you for convincing me. I will become a phone repair technician instead. Have fun with your amazing programming career. You will do great. (This is the sarcastaball moment for me. Seriously I'm not even being sarcastic. You will do great) > guaranteed to be faster That's good for you. I still prefer to just write `pbpaste | base64 -d` into my terminal. Sorry for wanting to solve problems in a different way
- hahn-kev 3y agoNice tool, sure there might be other tools online that have more features, but this is a pretty tool and pleasing to the eye and to use. Also it's nice to have a simple fast desktop tool. Thanks for building it!
- adibalcan 3y agoHow can you integrate chatGPT here?
- eshnil 3y agoLast year, I started building a similar desktop tool in Flutter: https://github.com/PolyglotNetwork/devtoolbox https://github.com/PolyglotNetwork/devtoolbox I wanted to include offline CyberChef within this app in a webview but it turned out, Flutter still doesn't support WebViews on non-mobile platforms. I wonder if that has changed.
- marcodiego 3y agoI think these would be way more useful in CLI form.
- deleted 3y ago[deleted]
- debarshri 3y agoI think all the tools are already there in your OS.
- corytheboyd 3y agoGoing to piggyback off of this thread and ask: does anyone know of an offline tool like this to show a visual diff between two pieces of text? Edit: I’ve been using JetBrains IDEs for at least 10 years now and never thought to type “diff” into the actions menu looking for this… well, sure enough, it’s there! It’s about the same as the merge conflict resolver, which is amazing.

- hangonhn 3y agoIf you're on Windows you can try Win Merge? There are a lot more choices on MacOS and Linux too. Or you can just use the built in comparison ability of VSCode: https://vscode.one/diff-vscode/ https://vscode.one/diff-vscode/
- racl101 3y agoNot free but if you do a lot of text processing and want a power diff tool that even diffs CSV spreadsheets, for example, then Beyond Compare (https://www.scootersoftware.com/home https://www.scootersoftware.com/home) is something I'd recommend. It is not the most expensive nor the cheapest. But it does do visual diff really well. There's a Windows, MacOS and Linux version too.
- corytheboyd 3y agoMore than happy to pay for good software, thanks for the lead! Downloaded and will give it a go this week

- prakhar897 3y agoI like this one: https://github.com/oobabooga/text-generation-webui https://github.com/oobabooga/text-generation-webui LLM is the swiss army knife for everyone not just developers.
- lbj 3y agoLooks like a great tool for those who still aren't using Emacs.
- dotancohen 3y agoIf you can point me to a resource that will show me how to do half the things CyberChef does in Emacs, I would appreciate that. I'm just getting into Emacs for org mode and I love it.
- lbj 3y agoCongratulations on beginning your spiritual journey. 99% of that stuff I handle in a Repl hooked into Clojure using Cider.
- dotancohen 3y agoPlease, tell me more.
