I built 40+ free browser tools for PDFs, images and QR codes
While working on different projects I kept needing small utilities:
- compressing PDFs
- converting images
- generating QR codes
- quick calculators
Most websites that offer these tools are slow, full of ads, or require uploading files to their servers.
So I decided to build my own collection of tools that run directly in the browser.
What the site includes
Right now the project has more than 40 tools, including:
- PDF compressor
- Merge PDF
- Split PDF
- Image compressor
- PNG to JPG converter
- JPG to WebP
- QR code generator
- WiFi QR generator
- VAT and percentage calculators
- Word and character counter
Everything runs client-side, so files never leave your device.
Why I built it this way
Privacy and speed were the main goals.
Instead of uploading files to a server, most tools use browser APIs and JavaScript libraries to process files locally.
That makes the tools faster and avoids storing user files.
Examples of tools

Image resizing

QR code generator

What I'm planning next
The goal is to keep expanding the collection and reach around 100 tools over time.
Some tools I'm planning to add:
- JSON formatter
- Base64 encoder/decoder
- Password generator
- UUID generator
- DNS lookup
Feedback welcome
If you have ideas for tools that would be useful, I'd love to hear them.
