    Hi guys, I was bored so I decided to just build things. the site has tiny but somewhat useful products. please check and let me know what you think. If you have recommendations for new products let me know.

      Like it, I think it's cool. Base 64 decoder/encoder would be cool, as would a PEM decoder.

    The chord progression generator doesn't return correct chords, as it uses the Chromatic scale, while it should probably use a diatonic scale.

    So for example for I-IV-V it gives me C, D#, E while it should give me C-F-G (https://www.justbuildthings.com/chord-progression-generator)

    This should be easy to fix, though. To point you in the right direction, see e.g. - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roman_numeral_analysis - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chord_progression

    Fascinating topic, keep up the work!

    Very nice. Some are actually very useful. Suggestion: keep the sidebar on the left when inside an app, instead of requiring users to going back. Easier to explore the tools.

    Really cool idea! Nice clean site and clever utilities.

    What front-end tooling did you use? Did you use any CSS framework?

    I like the idea but it screams LLM generated content to me.

      Would that make the tools any less useful? They still work, right?

      Yeah... The UI at the very least looks very v0-ish, it doesn't consider UX at all. The tools are cool though
