Hey Product Hunt, so excited to launch & open-source 15 new dev tools!
It's wild – the online utils devs use every day are cluttered with ads.
So, we made an ad-free, open source, light & simple alternative.
This all started at a team dinner –– thanks to the amazing idea by @preston_pham to build our own set of tools with a better dev experience than the tools we were all using every day.
They could be client-side + fast, ad-free + uncluttered, and we could open-source them too.
Since that dinner, any time we needed a util we’d just add it to our stack. So far we’re at 15 tools! (and we’ve already got our first community contribution, thanks @cassidoo for an awesome .env to netlify.toml converter!)
So excited to open source it and share with you today! 😃
Check it out at jam.dev/utilities or view the source at github.com/jamdotdev/jam-dev-utilities.
Which tool do you want to see added next?

Who hunted Dev Utils?
Dev Utils was hunted by Dani Grant. A “hunter” on Product Hunt is the community member who submits a product to the platform — uploading the images, the link, and tagging the makers behind it. Hunters typically write the first comment explaining why a product is worth attention, and their followers are notified the moment they post. Around 79% of featured launches on Product Hunt are self-hunted by their makers, but a well-known hunter still acts as a signal of quality to the rest of the community.
