Show HN: Dev Toolbox – A browser extension with simple offline dev tools Hello HN! I'd like to share a browser extension I made that provides quick offline access to various development tools. Current tool set: Calculate hashes; encode and decode HTML, URI, Base64; convert numbers between different bases; parse and manipulate various time formats; format and inspect IPv4/CIDR addresses; search all v13.1 emoji with quick copying in various formats. It runs entirely offline, making no external requests (even emoji PNG files are bundled), and only requires local storage permission to remember your last tab and input. This was inspired by an old extension called Hasher (no longer on the Chrome Store) that provided a simple interface to similar utilities. This was an opportunity to get back into making extensions, practice with Vue a bit, and expand upon the original idea. It's available for Chrome, Edge (via Chrome Store), and Firefox; links and screenshots are on GitHub, where you can also report any problems. Feedback and suggestions are very welcome. Thanks! https://ift.tt/p0sNCgl https://ift.tt/p0sNCgl April 10, 2022 at 01:43AM
Show HN: StreetComplete, an OpenStreetMap Editor for Humans StreetComplete is an OpenStreetMap[0] editor directed at people who want to contribute and want to do this using their smartphone, without learning how to edit things[1]. It is available as an Android application. It is intended to be used as one walks, with quests appearing as markers on the map. Selecting a marker allows one to answer a simple question. The answer will be added to the OpenStreetMap database, with app handling selecting objects for editing, transforming answer into OSM tags and making edits. OpenStreetMap account is needed to apply edits, but it is possible to start without it, make some edits and login/register later. Note: I am not the main author, but I am one of the active contributors. Github page is at https://ift.tt/2g8lasH and https://ift.tt/3nR9PzS shows what was recently released.
