Solo dev's lesson from building 91 free browser tools — what should I build next?
Hey PH 👋
Started keyboardtester.click 2 years ago because I bought a used mechanical keyboard online and had no easy way to test if all the keys actually worked.
Built 1 tool for myself, posted it, and people kept asking "can you also test mice / monitors / mics?" — 91 tools later, here we are.
Some I'm proud of:
- Keyboard tester with NKRO + ghosting + cat-progress gamification
- Dead pixel + frame-skipping + monitor sharpness test
- Hearing-age test (8 kHz – 22 kHz, mosquito tone included)
- Online ruler — actual cm/inches, calibrated by overlaying a credit card
Everything browser-based, free, no install, no signup, in 8 languages.
Question for you all: what testing tool do you wish existed but doesn't? What hardware / browser thing would you want to verify in 30 seconds without installing anything?
Honest answers welcome — I'm always looking for the next one to build.
