It‑tools is a web-based collection of developer-friendly utility tools featuring a polished user experience—accessible via the online portal it‑tools.tech, and self-hostable via Docker.

Neorg
Modernity meets insane extensibility
Neorg is an all-encompassing tool based around structured note taking, project and task management, time tracking, slideshows, writing typeset documents and much more. The premise is that all of these features are built on top of a single base file format (.norg), which the user only has to learn once to gain access to all of Neorg's functionality. Not only does this yield a low barrier for entry for new users it also ensures that all features are integrated with each other and speak the same underlying language. The file format is built to be expressive and easy to parse, which also makes .norg files easily usable anywhere outside of Neorg itself. A good way of thinking about Neorg is as a plaintext environment that can be adapted to a variety of use cases. If a problem can be represented using raw text, it can be solved using Neorg. -
