As developers, we all need reliable tools for testing, debugging, and prototyping. But who wants to deal with signups, ads, or limited features? I built DevQuickTools to solve that a collection of free, privacy-first tools for everyday tasks. Here are 5 of my favorite tools from the site (all open-source, no signup, no BS):
