Hey! ๐ I'm Roel.
I build free tools that respect your time, your privacy, and your intelligence. No sign-ups. No tracking. No dark patterns. Just open a URL and get to work.
My latest project is PocketLab Tools, a growing suite of precision utilities for developers:
๐ง Mermaid diagram converter
๐ง JSON formatter & validator
๐จ Color palette generator
...with more shipping every month.
๐ pocketlabtools.com
I also built PluginSmith (turns docs into Claude Code plugins) and Urban Rider (scooter nav that actually knows city streets).
๐ pluginsmith.app
Here's the thing. All of this is free. No subscriptions, no premium tiers, no "sign up to unlock." I build these because I needed them, and I keep them free because I think great tools shouldn't have a paywall.
But free doesn't mean it costs nothing to make. Every tool takes nights, weekends, and way too much coffee to build, test, and keep running. โ๏ธ
If a tool I built saved you 10 minutes, fixed a headache, or just made your day a little smoother, consider buying me a coffee. It directly funds the next tool and feature and keeps everything free for everyone.
Thanks for supporting independent dev work from Berlin. ๐
