I have a. suite of tolls for developers:

https://www.punycoder.com/ (a tool for Punycode to Text/Unicode and vice-versa conversion),

https://www.htmlwasher.com/ (a tool if you have some dirty HTML and need to clean it up),

https://www.htmlcorrector.com/ (a tool if you have some not so well-formed HTML and need to fix it),

https://www.htmlenc.com/ (a simple tool to HTML encode (escape) a text),

https://www.urlenc.com/ (a simple tool to URL encode (escape) a text),

https://www.gguid.com/ (a customizable GUID generator),

https://www.64baser.com/ (a Base64 and vice-versa encoder),

https://www.hexator.com/ (a Hex and vice-versa encoder),

https://www.cescaper.com/ (a C and C++ string escaper and unescaper) https://www.htmlinstant.com/ (a simple HTML editor).

https://www.notationer.com/ (a tool to switch across (code) notations, like camelCase, PascalCase, snake-case).

Frontend is mostly in React/Next.js (Some older projects have frontend still in the old ASP.NET MVC and Ajax :-)). Where the backend is needed, it is written in .Net/C# and running on Azure.


Have you seen CyberChef?


interesting,

tho, is it a good idea use the .it domain for technology potentially blocked in Italy?


Italy cares enough to ban ChatGPT, which is legally easy to do.

Going through the hassle to revoke an .it domain is a little bit... how to say... small potatoes


I have a coupon site for developers https://www.gluee.com/ and a set of small tools for developers:

https://www.punycoder.com/ (a tool for Punycode to Text/Unicode and vice-versa conversion),

https://www.htmlwasher.com/ (a tool if you have some dirty HTML and need to clean it up),

https://www.htmlcorrector.com/ (a tool if you have some not so well-formed HTML and need to fix it),

https://www.htmlenc.com/ (a simple tool to HTML encode (escape) a text),

https://www.urlenc.com/ (a simple tool to URL encode (escape) a text),

https://www.gguid.com/ (a customizable GUID generator),

https://www.64baser.com/ (a Base64 and vice-versa encoder),

https://www.hexator.com/ (a Hex and vice-versa encoder),

https://www.cescaper.com/ (a C and C++ string escaper and unescaper),

https://www.csharpescaper.com/ (a C# string escaper and unescaper),

https://www.jsonescaper.com/ (a JSON string escaper and unescaper),

https://www.rustescaper.com/ (a Rust string escaper and unescaper),

https://www.pythonescaper.com/ (a Python string escaper and unescaper),

https://www.javascriptescaper.com/ (a JavaScript string escaper and unescaper),

https://www.javaescaper.com/ (a Java string escaper and unescaper) and

https://www.htmlinstant.com/ (a simple HTML editor).

All are written in .Net/C# and running on Azure, HtmlInstant has frontend in React, otherwise they are old ASP.NET MVC and Ajax :-)


What is your strategy for having each tool hosted on an independent domain, as opposed to an umbrella "developertools" domain? SEO benefits?


thanks :-)


I've noticed that it lacks any sort of licensing information. If you use it, let me know; I will slap a BSD two-clause on it.


thanks :-) I even didn't test it on Word's HTML


ok, yes why not make it customizable


you are right - I will rewrite it to use HTML Tidy lib or something like that and it will be compliant


Is HTML Tidy spec-compliant these days? It predates the spec. A cursory look at its GitHub repo doesn’t convince me of it now being spec-compliant. E.g. lexer.c doesn’t have indications of being based on the tokenization section of the spec.


my project does not want to compete with any lib or commandline or other downloadable tool - yes - it's main purpose is convenience

thanks, I will consider using Bleach as an underlying lib / part of my service


thanks for your comment :-) I think rather than using a web service people would use some library like the HTML Tidy. Regarding to opensourcing - I think I will rather use some opensource as a core lib for my project.


there is link to my company where is my identity - so it is not anonymous :-) but yes - why not, will fill there something more


I think jtraffic meant adding a warning that HtmlWasher is not suitable for turning unsafe HTML into a safe version, e.g. for sanitising forum posts written in HTML.
