Pocket Tools 🔧

A collection of simple, self-contained web tools. Each tool is a single HTML file with no external dependencies.

Philosophy

• KISS Principle: Keep It Simple, Stupid
• One File Per Tool: Each tool is completely self-contained in a single index.html file
• No Dependencies: No frameworks, no build tools, no external libraries (unless absolutely necessary)
• Mobile-Friendly: All tools should work well on mobile devices
• Zero Setup: Just open the HTML file in a browser

Available Tools

All tools are hosted at tools.amitgawande.com

Current tools:

• Counter - Simple counting tool with keyboard shortcuts
• Markify - Convert HTML to clean Markdown format
• Untrack - Remove tracking parameters from URLs

Tools are automatically discovered from the root directory. Each tool must have:

• An index.html file (the tool itself)
• A README.md file with metadata (category, created date, updated date) and description

Each tool is a folder at the root level and accessible at /<folder-name>/

Adding New Tools

1. Create a new directory at the root level with a descriptive name (use kebab-case)
2. Create an index.html file in that directory (the tool itself)
3. Create a README.md file in that directory with:
   • Tool name as h1 (# Tool Name)
   • Metadata section with category, created date, and updated date
   • Description section
   • Any additional sections (Features, Usage, etc.)
4. Follow the self-contained pattern (see counter/ for reference)
5. Run python generate-index.py to update the main index page

See counter/README.md for the required format.

Structure

/
├── README.md                    # This file (project overview)
├── index.html                   # Auto-generated landing page
├── generate-index.py            # Script to generate index.html
├── Claude.md                    # Instructions for Claude Code
└── counter/                     # Each tool is a folder at root level
    ├── index.html              # Self-contained tool
    └── README.md               # Tool metadata and description

Building

To regenerate the landing page:

python generate-index.py

This will scan the root directory for tool folders (those with both index.html and README.md), and generate a new index.html with links to all tools.
