Frequently asked about the Developer / Tools

What developer tools are here?

14 utilities: IP subnet (CIDR → mask + hosts + broadcast), subnet mask converter (dotted ↔ CIDR), MAC OUI lookup, Base64 encode/decode, URL encode/decode, HTML entity encode/decode, hash generator (SHA-1/256/384/512), UUID generator, password generator (configurable charset), password strength meter (entropy), random string generator, bandwidth / download time, color converter (HEX ↔ RGB ↔ HSL), and cron expression helper.

Is everything client-side?

Yes — every developer tool runs in your browser. Base64, hashes, UUIDs, passwords — none of it is sent to a server. Safe to use for sensitive data.

How accurate is the password strength meter?

Entropy in bits = length × log₂(charset size). 60+ bits = strong, 80+ = very strong. The verdict scale: < 28 weak, 28-60 reasonable, 60-128 strong, > 128 very strong (passphrases). It does NOT check against breached-password lists.

Why is UUID v4 the default?

v4 is the universally-supported random-UUID standard. The page uses the browser's `crypto.randomUUID()` which is cryptographically secure on all modern browsers.

Cron expression — minute hour day month weekday?

Five fields, space-separated. Examples: `0 9 * * 1-5` = 9 AM weekdays. `*/15 * * * *` = every 15 minutes. The Cron Helper calculator builds the expression interactively and explains it in plain English.

Does the IP Subnet calculator support IPv6?

Only IPv4 currently. IPv6 subnet math is straightforward but the UX is different — coming in the next developer-tools expansion.
