Today's featured utility is a UUID Generator.

It's one of those tools that seems trivial until you suddenly need several identifiers for testing, APIs, or mock data.

I keep finding myself generating UUIDs for:

• Database records

• API payloads

• Event IDs

• Test fixtures

• Temporary resources

Curious what others are using these days.

Traditional UUIDs?

ULIDs?

Snowflake IDs?

Custom implementations?

Always interesting to see what different teams prefer.

Today's featured utilities are:

🌐 URL Encoder / Decoder

⏱ Timestamp Converter

They're not flashy features.

But they're definitely tools I end up searching for repeatedly.

Common use cases:

• API debugging

• OAuth callbacks

• Query parameters

• UTM links

• Unix timestamps

• Log analysis

• Event processing

Curious what others use more frequently.

Do you constantly convert timestamps?

Or are URL encoding issues the bigger pain point?

Trying to understand which developer workflows deserve better tooling.

Today's feature is a Text Diff Checker.

Instead of only showing differences, I wanted it to support actual workflows.

Current features:

• Side-by-side comparison

• Highlight additions

• Highlight deletions

• Cherry-pick changes

• Merge content

• Copy final output

• Download the resulting file

I've noticed developers spend a surprising amount of time comparing:

• API responses
• JSON files
• SQL scripts
• Documentation
• Generated AI content

Curious to hear from others:

What do you compare most often?

JSON?

Markdown?

Code?

Configs?

SQL?

Prompts?

Trying to understand which workflows are worth improving next.

Today's featured utility is a Hash Generator.

Supports common algorithms like:

• MD5

• SHA-1

• SHA-256

• SHA-512

I realized this is another one of those tools developers repeatedly search for rather than memorize commands.

Curious:

What do you use hashes for most often?

• Checksums?
• API signing?
• File verification?
• Security workflows?
• Something else?

Today's featured utility is a JWT Decoder.

It's one of those tools developers don't think about often, until authentication suddenly stops working.

Things I usually inspect:

• exp
• iat
• sub
• iss
• aud
• roles
• permissions

JWTs have become a standard part of modern applications, but debugging them can still be annoying.

Curious:

Do you usually decode JWTs manually, use browser extensions, or rely on online tools?

🚀 Built and launched Dev Suit today!

As a Software Engineer and Data Engineer, I frequently switch between multiple websites for small utility tasks like JSON formatting, UUID generation, data conversion, encoding/decoding, and other developer workflows.

To solve this, I started building Dev Suit — a growing collection of free tools for developers and data professionals.

Current goals:
✅ Completely free to use
✅ Fast and lightweight
✅ No unnecessary signups
✅ Developer-focused utilities
✅ Continuous addition of new tools

This is just Day 1.

Over the coming weeks I'll be adding:

• JSON & XML tools
• SQL utilities
• Encoding/Decoding tools
• Timestamp converters
• CSV and data transformation tools
• Productivity utilities for developers
