I turn annoyances into dev tools

About

Hey everyone, I'm Omer, a software engineer from Pakistan. By day I work on healthcare data — GraphQL APIs, CSVs, databases. Every annoyance eventually becomes a side project. I've shipped three: GraphPeek — launching today 🚀 Chrome shows every GraphQL request as an identical row named "graphql". GraphPeek decodes them all in a DevTools sidepanel. csvdiff.app — compare CSVs entirely in your browser. MetaLens — inspect any page's meta tags instantly. No AI wrapper, no account, no subscription. Everything runs locally, everything is free. No grand plan — I just build things that make my workday less annoying. Turns out other devs have the same annoyances.

What's your most annoying GraphQL debugging ritual?

Mine was: open Network tab see 12 identical rows named "graphql" click each one expand the JSON find the operation name.
Every day. It's the whole reason GraphPeek exists.

Curious what everyone else's is worst DX pain when debugging GraphQL? Genuinely asking, because the best feature ideas so far have come from complaints, not requests.

GraphPeek - Make sense of every GraphQL request your app makes.

A Chrome devtools sidepanel that captures every request to /graphql, parses operations, and puts the Authorization header one click away.

Doing one of these because I get more from reading what others are building than from any newsletter.
