What tools do you use most on sites like it-tools?

I m curious how people actually use developer tool sites in real workflows.

Which tools do you personally use the most?

JSON formatter, UUID generator, cron tools, encoding tools, or something else?

This will help decide which tools to improve and which new ones to add next.

Why I started next-tools based on it-tools

next-tools started as a personal extension of it-tools.

I ve been a long-time user of it-tools and really appreciate the idea of having a simple, all-in-one online toolbox for developers.

While using it in daily work, I began experimenting with some changes and improvements that better fit my own needs such as a more modern UI, deeper multilingual support, and incremental refinements to existing tools.

Over time, this experiment grew into next-tools: a fork focused on modern UI, real i18n across all tools, bug fixes, and continuous evolution with new utilities.
