The Web Toolbox

A collection of handy, free-to-use tools for web developers, programmers and designers alike.

Inspired by thetoolbox.cc that went offline some time ago.

Adding new tools or making fixes

Please see contributing.md.

Developing locally

The application is developed and built for production using the amazing Parcel bundler.

Just clone the project locally, install dependencies with npm i and run npm run serve.

Parcel will build the project and create a local development server at http://localhost:1234 (if that port is available.)

Updating the online site

The site is hosted using GitHub pages, serving content from the gh-pages branch.

This branch is a sub-tree of the master branch, using files from the dist folder on master.

To update the branch:

• Build the project using npm run build
• Commit the new site contents
• Update the branch using npm run updatepages

The site should update as soon as GitHub Pages deploys from the new code.
