🛠️ DevToys New Tab: Swiss Army Knife for Developers
Turn your browser’s new tab into a fast developer tools workspace. DevToys New Tab bundles 30+ essential utilities across formatting, encoding, data conversion, DevOps helpers, testing tools, and image/color tools. Most tools run locally in your browser (offline), so you can work without relying on random online converters.

📌 Local tools + GA4 analytics
Tool inputs are processed locally in your browser. The extension uses Google Analytics (GA4) for basic usage analytics (e.g., feature usage). DevToys does not sell personal data.

🔍 Middle Box Search
The new tab page includes a search box that uses your browser’s default search engine.
• Search requires an internet connection.
• Developer tools work offline.

🚀 Quick Start Guide
1. Install the extension
2. Open a new tab OR click the extension icon for a popup view
3. Use the search box to search the web with your default search engine
4. Select a tool from the sidebar
5. Start working immediately
