Hello welcome to the tool directory, I'll try to give an explanation to the purpose of such tools.

You would imagine some file manipulation would require an actual program like python, C++ or something like that. But turns out HTML and javascript do the job pretty well... at least for the problems I face.

Post drafter (Link)

This tool is simply a way to streamline the formatting of creating these "posts" as you will for this site layout.

What can it do exactly?

Crossi

It can make the html for post formats as well as these shitty texts I have to restyle eventually

Bulk image cropper (local) (Link)

Imagine you had 50 images or so that consistently had a 50px top and bottom black border, or anyside really, and you needed to crop that out. It would take a while to do in Photoshop or normal image editing programs.

This is a solution I had cooked up. Entirely client sided so could be run locally if so, requires 2 libraries however, jszip and filesaver?

You can essentially drag your images to the tool, adjust how many pixels to crop out. Run it, and download the images all in 1 zip folder.

Basic PDF editor (local) (Link)

We've all been there before. You make a PDF scan on the printer and oh. You flipped it the wrong way. Sure you can put it in the browser rotate it to see it properly but you come to learn that. Rotating in the browser doesn't equal rotating the actual pages in the actual file, even if you save again! This was made to remove that pain.

There is also the case of having multiple PDFs and needing to merge them, and also deleting some of the pages.

This is similar to above, it's client sided so could be run locally. It's private, you can basically load the page, cut off your internet and it'll work. This version uses CDNs for the scripts however.

Here's the rundown of what this tool allows:
You can append different PDFs to eachother

You can reorder pages

You can delete pages

You can rotate pages

That's about it! keep in mind when appending, you better hope each "page" is relatively the same size else you end up with small pages and GIANT pages.

Basic file renamer (local) (Link)

It sucks to rename files one by one. While this one does somewhat require you to redownload everything... it does the job.

Most of these local projects were designed to accomadate dealing with a lot of images, so make do.

The only real compromise with this is that it doesn't replace the original file with the rename. You have to redownload, delete the original for the renamed to take its place. If anything use a real program, but for small images I think this is a good alternative.

Basic image to pdf converter (local) (Link)

Well you have a lot of images, say a 12 page music sheet... all in pngs. That's inconvienient. And the services like adobe want you to sign up to combine your images to a pdf. or even *gasp* pay for the privilege.

This tool is designed to take up to 20? PNGS JPEGS or other common image formats and turn them into a pdf all done through your browser. if you somehow need more than that, either find a better program or use the pdf editor tool above to append them together...
