Are We Reinventing the Wheel?

Why develop something like this again? There are many reasons, such as:

Many online tool websites now feel like they were designed in the last century.

Many modern tool websites are single-function, such as only supporting image compression, image format conversion, etc.

Some large and comprehensive tool websites even require VIP for some features...

I just want something that includes some of the tools I use daily, a website that doesn't look so ugly, and something that can be used for free. In reality, there are not many choices! So I made this tool collection website, and of course, the most important reason is that I registered the xxoo.tools domain a long time ago, didn't know what to do with it, so I just decided to make it a tool website!

Some Features

Some features of XTools:

Free—There are no plans to charge for the time being, unless one day we start using server capabilities.

Open Source—There's not much to say about this.

Data Security—Since these tools are intended to be implemented purely on the frontend, your data is processed on your browser end.

Technical Stack and UI Modernization

Supports PWA, available offline

Many features

These are just some of the features I can think of at the moment, and more new features may be added later! Such as adding a desktop version.

Some Thoughts

The development and launch of the project are actually very quick, very quick! After all, everyone now uses AI editors to write code, so this project also relies on Cursor for development and launch! I basically developed this project during the gap of developing another project, and let Cursor help develop this project.

In the AI era, it can accelerate the process from everyone's ideas to DEMO, so if you have any good ideas, don't hesitate or hesitate, pick up the AI editor and start writing, learn by doing!
