Built a free PDF toolkit that runs entirely in your browser (no uploads, no sign-up)
Hey r/sideprojects!
I built pdfcevir (https://pdfcevir.vercel.app) — a small toolkit with three tools:
- Convert images (JPG/PNG) to PDF
- Compress PDF files (great for scanned/image-heavy PDFs)
- Extract text from PDF into an editable Word (.docx) file
The core idea: everything runs client-side, directly in your browser. No file ever touches a server, no account needed, no usage limits.
Tech stack: plain HTML/CSS/JS, using pdf-lib and pdf.js for the heavy lifting, hosted free on Vercel.
It also auto-detects browser language (English/Turkish) with a manual toggle.
Would really appreciate any feedback — especially if something feels confusing, or if you hit a bug. Thanks for reading!
