For cloud professionals, developers, data teams, and solution architects, learning Generative AI on AWS is now a high-value career move. AWS provides a growing e
A few weeks ago I was remembering an old PC game I played in my younger years and that I'd love to wander through again, listening to the soundtrack, seeing the colorful cities.

Paste a URL → get a PDF of the whole page (or the whole site). Free plan gives 5 archives/month, all formats, cookie banner removal. Paid starts at $9/mo for 15 archives and 200 pages per site.

As developers, we use online tools all the time — JSON formatters, CSS generators, minifiers, validators… But honestly, most of them feel like this: painfully slow After a while, it just gets frustrating. So instead of complaining, I decided to build my own. I didn’t want to create just another tool website. I focused on three simple things: Speed – everything should feel instant I started with a
