This is a fork of the original project that is way ahead now.

    I don’t see a server, so shouldn’t this be “a collection of offline tools”? Throw in a service worker to cache everything (maybe it has one?) and there’s no reason to ever hit the server after first load.

      It’s the kind of thing I host so that no matter what device I’m sitting in front of, I can easily pull it up. Hence a server is needed. I’m not talking about just my own laptop or phone, I mean any shared or borrowed device.

      I find it so useful I pull it up almost every workday.

      So basically a browser extension? Actually it would be preferable in the Firefox sidebar vs a standalone site…

        There are lots of options:

        • extension, as you mentioned
        • Tauri app - like election, but uses system web view instead of baking in a browser
        • PWA - service workers to make it work offline in the browser

        Each is pretty easy, and the PWA means you can basically get the Tauri app feel for free.

    IT tools is a really good looking app with a lot of tools, but I think it might also be the definition of choice paralysis lol

    Hmmm… Interesting! I didn’t realize there was a fork, but then again, this is one of those tools I’ve had running for several months close to a year or so and never thought about it. The original dev, Corentin, has been working on many more new projects: https://bsky.app/profile/corentin.tech .

      Same for me, that’s why I shared it. I don’t know why he’s not merging PR’s because this fork tries to share everything back.

    I just had a quick play around with it, HEIC converter is something I didn’t know I needed (I have a large backup from my iPhone which has HEICs), and I like the .eml parser just to name a couple.

    I’ll be adding this to my server for sure. Thanks for sharing
