I spent 20 minutes setting up test data before writing a single line of code. So I built Toolpad.

The honest story behind Toolpad 👇

I was building a side project and needed some test credit card numbers. Googled it, landed on a sketchy site with 14 ads. Needed fake addresses too — different site, different UI, another set of ads. JSON formatting? Another tab.

I spent 20 minutes just setting up test data before writing a single line of code.

So I built Toolpad — one clean, fast, no-friction place with everything a developer needs for testing and data work. No account. No limits. No sketchy sites.

What's the most annoying thing about the developer tool sites you use today? I'm genuinely building this around real pain points.
