How many times a day do you find yourself searching for:

"How many tokens is this prompt?"
"Convert JSON to Pydantic / Rust struct"
"CSS fluid clamp calculator"
"Convert Docker Compose to Kubernetes YAML"
"Validate JWT structure offline"

If you're like most engineers, your browser history is a graveyard of single-purpose utility websites. Worse, most of these tools are bloated with intrusive ads, track your clipboard, require premium subscriptions, or send your sensitive API keys and company data to external servers.

To fix this, we built DevsTools — an ultra-fast suite of 251 developer tools that run 100% client-side in your browser.

🔒 Why "100% Client-Side" Matters

When you paste a JWT token, an environment file (.env), an SSH key, or customer JSON into a random online tool, you are trusting that remote server with sensitive data.

With DevsTools:

Zero Server Uploads: Every calculation, regex check, hash generation, and AST conversion happens in-memory via JavaScript and the browser's native Web Cryptography API.
Works Offline: Once loaded, you can disconnect your internet and every tool continues working.
Zero Latency: No HTTP round-trips to a backend. The UI updates instantaneously as you type.

🌟 Top 10 Most Useful Tools in the Suite

1. LLM Token & Cost Calculator

Estimate exact BPE token counts and real-time inference costs for GPT-4o, Claude 3.5 Sonnet, Gemini 1.5 Pro, and Llama 3. Perfect for budgeting LLM API calls and RAG pipelines.

2. JSON to Multi-Language Structs

Stop writing boilerplate serialization models by hand. DevsTools converts JSON into:

Python (Pydantic V2): JSON to Pydantic
Rust (Serde): JSON to Rust Serde
Swift (Codable): JSON to Swift
Kotlin (Data Classes): JSON to Kotlin
TypeScript & Zod: JSON to TypeScript

3. CSS ↔ Tailwind CSS Converter

Effortlessly convert vanilla CSS declarations (display: flex; justify-content: center;) into modern Tailwind utility classes (flex justify-center items-center) and vice versa.
🔗 Try CSS to Tailwind

4. Fluid Typography & Clamp Calculator

Calculate responsive clamp(min, preferred, max) formulas for seamless font scaling across mobile (320px) to ultra-wide (1440px+) displays without media query bloat.
