Hey everyone 👋
I’ve been working on a small passion project called Tools25
— a set of 6 free online developer tools that run completely in your browser.
🧰 What’s inside
JSON Formatter & Validator
Secure Password Generator
Base64 Encoder/Decoder
Hash Generator (MD5, SHA256, SHA512)
URL Encoder/Decoder
Lorem Ipsum Generator
All the tools are 100% browser-based — no tracking, no login, no backend data storage. I built them because I was tired of using ad-heavy or slow “free tool” websites.
⚙️ How I built it
Everything runs on a lightweight WordPress + custom plugin setup.
Each tool is written in vanilla JavaScript for speed and simplicity.
I focused on:
Keeping the UI clean and responsive (TailwindCSS + Elementor).
Fast load times (no external APIs).
SEO and accessibility from day one.
💡 What I learned
Simple solves problems. People want quick, distraction-free utilities.
Performance > fancy design. Fast pages beat animations every time.
Launch early, improve fast. I shipped the MVP, then improved it after user feedback on Product Hunt.
Privacy is appreciated. Users love tools that don’t send data anywhere.
🚀 Try it yourself
