by•
StayAwake.Dev is a single tab productivity hub for developers who live in the browser. It brings together the tools you usually keep open in multiple tabs into one focused workspace with no installs or sign ups.
Includes a flip clock, Pomodoro timer, Stay Awake screen lock, tasks with priorities, and essential dev utilities like UUID, Base64, hashes, JWT, JSON formatter, regex, URL tools, and timestamps. Built to stay open all day and eliminate tab chaos.

StayAwake.Dev
Hey Product Hunt đź‘‹
I built StayAwake.Dev because I was tired of juggling multiple tabs just to stay focused while coding.
I wanted one place that could stay open all day with a clock, Pomodoro, screen wake lock, tasks, and the small dev utilities I reach for constantly like UUIDs, JSON formatting, JWT decoding, and timestamps.
No installs, no sign ups, no tracking. Just a single tab that does its job and stays out of the way.
Would love to hear what you think and what you would add next.
Thanks for checking it out 🚀

Looks cool, congrats on the launch! Would be nice to have simple markdown notes as well.

@milukove Thank you. Glad you like it. Simple markdown notes are a great idea and already on our radar. Definitely something we want to add.
i have like 30 tabs open at any given time - one for docs, one for the API playground, one for Stack Overflow from two days ago that i swear i'll read eventually. the "one tab you never close" angle is smart. what made you go with browser tab vs desktop app? i'm guessing it's for the zero-friction start, but curious if there were trade-offs around performance or persistence when the tab accidentally gets closed
This is smart. I always have 5+ tabs open for random dev utils scattered across different sites. One tab that stays pinned with everything sounds way more sane. The screen wake lock alone is useful. Well done.
For developers who spend 8+ hours a day in the browser, StayAwake.Dev solves so many small but annoying pain points, having all those tiny dev utilities (UUID, hashes, regex) in one place—no more opening 10 different tabs for each.
I'm curious about that: How does the “Stay Awake” screen lock work (does it prevent sleep only when the tab is active, or system-wide)? And will you support offline use for when I’m working without internet?
