Developer Tools — Free Online Utilities

98 tools Free No signup

Developer is the largest category on BoxTool, with over a hundred tools for the small jobs that come up while writing code. The JSON Formatter & Validator pretty-prints or minifies JSON and shows the parser's error message, including the position in browsers that report it; the JSON to TypeScript Interface Generator, JSON ↔ YAML Converter and CSV ↔ JSON Converter move data between formats without a build step. The Regex Tester & Debugger highlights matches and capture groups as you type, and the Cron Expression Parser explains a schedule in plain English and lists its next ten run times. Encoding tools cover Base64, URL percent-encoding, HTML entities, Unicode code points and JWT decoding; generators produce UUIDs and ULIDs, Lorem Ipsum, QR codes, barcodes and HTML boilerplate. Reference tools such as the HTTP Status Codes list, the Git Command Cheat Sheet and the Tailwind CSS Cheat Sheet are searchable in the page. Everything here runs as JavaScript in your browser tab: the JSON you paste, the token you decode and the file you hash never leave your machine, which makes these tools usable with production data that must not be sent to a third-party server. A handful of tools, such as the REST API Request Builder, the Webhook Tester, the Network Latency Tester, the IP Geolocation Lookup and the JSONPlaceholder API Explorer, exist precisely to make network requests; the rest do not contact a server.
