Guides, tutorials, and tips for developers.
You see `··· --- ···` in a movie or an escape room and wonder what it means. Morse code turns every letter into a pattern of dots and dashes — a system so reliable it has survived 160 years unchanged.
Your client sends a spec sheet saying "RAL 7016 — Anthracite Grey." Your CSS needs `#293133`. A quick RAL to HEX conversion bridges the gap in seconds.
Cron syntax looks cryptic — but it's just five fields. Learn the field order and four special characters, and you can write any cron schedule from memory. This guide breaks it down with real examples.
You upload a video and it plays with black bars. Or you post a photo and the platform crops out someone's head. Both problems have the same root cause: aspect ratio mismatch.
You've seen strings like `https://example.com/search?q=hello%20world` and wondered what `%20` is doing there.
The fastest way to compare text online is to paste both versions into a diff checker and let it highlight every addition, deletion, and modification in under a second. No scrolling.
You've seen Base64 strings before — in JWTs, in CSS data URIs, in API request bodies. They look like random text but follow a strict pattern.
The `Authorization` header in your API request contains a long dot-separated string starting with `eyJ...`. That's a JSON Web Token — a JWT. A jwt decoder splits it apart and shows you what's inside.
Every API response, log file, and JWT token has a number like `1742400000` somewhere in it. That's a unix timestamp. A unix timestamp converter turns it into a human-readable date in one click.
If you've ever opened a regex tester online and stared at a blank screen, you're not alone. These 10 patterns cover the validation, cleanup, and extraction tasks you'll actually hit in production.
If you're looking for a uuid generator online, chances are you just need a quick UUID. But there are actually a few flavours to choose from, and picking the right one can save you headaches later.
