Under the Hood: Modular Components

We’ve spent the last few weeks refactoring the codebase for maintainability. Key changes:

• Shared Dropzone component — 74 file-input tools now use a single _Dropzone.astro component instead of duplicated HTML
• Status utility extracted — 112 tools now use a shared createStatusUpdater() function from status-utils.ts instead of inline setStatus() functions
• Encoder family modularized — Base64, Base32, Base58, URL encoding, HTML entities, and binary/hex converters now share encode-utils.ts and base32-base58.ts
• Construction calculator helpers — Shared calc-utils.ts with unit conversion, reinforcement tables, and calculations used across 15+ construction tools
• Paper primitives system — 9 lined/graph/music paper generators now share paper-prims.ts for consistent rendering

These aren’t user-facing changes, but they mean we can ship new tools faster and keep behavior consistent across the entire collection.

Tool Count: 150+ and Growing

Our catalog now exceeds 150 tools across 18 categories:

Category	Tools
1Stop Tools	40+
Image tools	25+
PDF tools	35+
Developer tools	30+
Calculators	40+
Generators	20+
Audio/video	10+

Every single tool is free, works in your browser, and never uploads your data to any server.

What’s Coming Next

• More blog content — tutorials for our most popular tools
• Prose styling — improved readability for long documentation
• Even more shared components — we’re not done refactoring
