A Swiss Army knife for developers.
DevToys 2.0 is currently under development in branch dev/2.0.
DevToys helps with daily development tasks like formatting JSON, comparing text, and testing RegExp. No need to use many untrustworthy websites to do simple tasks with your data. With Smart Detection, DevToys can detect the best tool to use for the data copied to the Windows clipboard. Compact overlay lets you keep the app small and on top of other windows. Multiple instances of the app can be used at once.

DevToys works entirely offline, meaning that none of the data used by the app goes on internet. However, the app requires some other permissions in order to work correctly.
Uses all system resources- This permission is required for some tools likePNG / JPEG Compressoror (upcoming)On-screen color picker / measurer, which use a 3rd party Open-Source Win32 process like Efficient-Compression-Tool. All the code requiring this permission can be found here.
