Platform Engineer Toolkit
Platform engineers build the internal developer platforms that enable product teams to ship faster. The work spans Kubernetes, CI/CD pipelines, infrastructure-as-code, and developer experience tooling. These free, browser-based utilities handle the formatting, validation, and conversion tasks that come up constantly when building and maintaining platform abstractions.
JSON to YAML Converter
Convert Terraform plan JSON output to YAML, translate API responses into Helm values, or reformat CRD definitions. YAML is the lingua franca of Kubernetes, and this tool makes conversion instant.
JSON Formatter & Validator
Pretty-print and validate JSON from Terraform state, cloud API responses, and GitOps webhook payloads. Catch structural errors in JSON configurations before they break your deployment pipeline.
Code Diff Tool
Compare Kubernetes manifests, Terraform modules, and Helm chart templates before and after changes. Essential for reviewing platform changes and debugging unexpected diffs in GitOps workflows.
Crontab Calculator
Validate cron expressions for Kubernetes CronJobs, Argo Workflows schedules, and platform maintenance tasks. Preview the next ten execution times to prevent scheduling conflicts.
Base64 Encoder / Decoder
Decode Kubernetes Secrets (which are Base64-encoded by default), encode values for ConfigMaps, and inspect JWT tokens from service mesh authentication layers like Istio.
RegExp Tester
Build regex patterns for Ingress path matching, Prometheus metric relabeling, and log pipeline filters. Test patterns with live highlighting before committing them to your platform configuration.
JSON to XML Converter
Convert JSON to XML for legacy enterprise integrations that your platform must support. Some older middleware, SOAP services, and configuration management systems still require XML input.
Timestamp Converter
Convert timestamps from platform logs, Kubernetes events, and CI/CD pipeline outputs to human-readable dates. Essential for debugging timing issues across distributed platform components.
cURL Converter
Test platform APIs, webhook endpoints, and health checks. Convert cURL commands from documentation into structured requests for debugging and integration testing.
MD5 / Hash Generator
Generate SHA-256 checksums for container image verification, artifact signing, and configuration integrity checks in your platform's supply chain security pipeline.
Password Generator
Generate strong secrets for platform service accounts, database credentials, and API tokens. Avoid weak passwords in the infrastructure layer that product teams depend on.
URL Encoder / Decoder
Encode callback URLs for webhook integrations and decode percent-encoded strings from Ingress controller logs. Prevents encoding issues in platform-level routing configurations.
