Awesome DevTools — A Curated List of Tools for Developers

Dariush — Fri, 11 Jul 2025 06:49:38 +0000

Let’s be real: half of being a developer is writing code — the other half is finding the right tool to fix something, debug faster, or automate the boring stuff.

Over the years, I’ve collected a ton of bookmarks, extensions, CLI tools, web apps, and random utilities that have saved me time (and sanity). So I finally put them all in one place:

👉 awesome-devtools – a GitHub repo full of developer tools that actually help.

💡 Why I built this

There are already a bunch of “awesome” lists on GitHub, but most are either outdated or mix in too much stuff — libraries, frameworks, articles, courses, you name it.

I wanted something clean, practical, and focused on tools — not packages, not tutorials. Just tools that make your dev workflow better.

If it helps you:

Debug faster 🐞
Write better code ✍️
Test smarter ✅
Ship safer 🚢
Or just save time 🕐 …it’s probably in there.

🧰 What’s inside

The list is organized by category, so you can quickly jump to what you need:

🧪 Testing & Debugging tools
🛡️ Security & privacy utilities
🧠 Productivity & workflow helpers
🌐 Browser extensions
⚙️ DevOps, CI/CD, monitoring
🧱 API tools
🖥️ Desktop & terminal tools
📦 Package managers & dependency scanners ...and more.

🔎 A few tools I love from the list

Here are just a few personal favorites:

HTTPie – clean UI for API testing
tldr.sh – simplified man pages for common commands
Can I Use – browser support reference
mkcert – make localhost HTTPS easy
Wappalyzer – tech stack detector for websites

But honestly, there’s a lot more. And I'm constantly adding to it.

📌 TL;DR

I made a GitHub repo called awesome-devtools
It’s a curated list of useful dev tools (no fluff)
It’s open-source — you can contribute
If you like it, share it or star it 🙌
