Features
maxDEV is currently in the early access phase and includes various productivity tools across different categories.
All tools run locally on your machine. No tool-related data is transmitted to the internet. The only exception is Sentry integration for error tracking and reporting, which sends anonymized data without any personally identifiable information.
| Tool | Description |
|---|---|
| Mock Server | Create and manage mock servers |
| HTTP Tester | Test HTTP requests and analyze responses |
| Redis Client | Connect to and manage Redis databases |
| JWT Token | Create and decode JWT tokens |
| Base64 | Encode and decode Base64 data |
| JSON Formatter | Format and beautify JSON data |
| Password Generator | Generate secure passwords |
| Hash Generator | Generate MD5, SHA-1, SHA-256, SHA-512 hashes |
The list of tools is being actively extended; however, you can request a tool via GitHub Issues.
Updates
Current approach: maxDEV uses an aggressive update strategy – the application checks for updates at every launch and automatically downloads and installs them when available.
Future approach: Once the application becomes more stable, we’ll switch to a background update strategy — the application will check for updates in the background and notify you when an update is available. You’ll then have the choice to install or postpone the update.
Pricing
During the early access program, maxDEV is completely free. For the future, I’m considering a freemium model where core tools will be free, while premium features will require a payment.
