Text Utils

A utility application providing a suite of text manipulation tools for developers and writers to format, transform, and analyze text.

A grab-bag of text utilities developers and writers reach for daily — case conversion, character and word counts, basic encoders, and quick transforms — all with live results as you type.

Lives inside a shared React monorepo with Matrix Tasks and Todo App, so they share a build pipeline and a small design system.

## problem

Devs and writers reach for the same handful of text utilities every day — case conversion, counts, basic encoders — but each typically lives in a different bookmark or one-off site, with ad-heavy UIs and stale UX.

## approach

Single page, live results as you type, no nags. Each utility is a small isolated component so adding a new one is a focused diff. Shares the build pipeline and design system with Matrix Tasks and Todo App in the same React monorepo.

## shipped

Bookmarks consolidate to one URL. Performance is trivial since there's no network round-trip per transform — everything runs in-page on the input as you type.
