Show DEV: I built A2Z Edit — free, private, browser-based image, PDF & OCR tools (100/100 Lighthouse)

Hey DEV community,

I built A2Z Edit — a free, private, and browser-based toolkit for images, PDFs, OCR, QR codes, and file management.

🔧 What it does

Image Tools: Remove background, resize, crop, compress, convert between formats (JPG, PNG, WebP, AVIF, HEIC), add watermarks, blur/pixelate sensitive regions, create collages, and view/strip EXIF metadata.

PDF Tools: Merge, split, arrange, compress, watermark, sign, crop, edit text, redact, and convert PDFs to/from JPG, PNG, Word, and CSV/Excel.

OCR Tools: Extract text from images and PDFs with support for English, Arabic, and bilingual English+Arabic recognition.

QR Tools: Generate customizable QR codes and scan them from images or your camera.

File Tools: ZIP creator/extractor, Base64 encoding, and color converters (RGB, HEX, HSL, CMYK).

🔒 What makes it different

Your files never leave your browser. Everything runs client-side. No uploads, no servers, no signup, no limits.

I built this to be fast, private, and reliable. No ads. No freemium. Just tools that work.

Would love to hear your feedback or suggestions for new tools. Let me know what you think in the comments!


Note: This was built with Next.js, runs entirely in the browser, and scores 100/100 on Lighthouse (Performance, Accessibility, Best Practices, SEO).
