What's New

The latest improvements to CodeGenerato.rs, including new tools, feature upgrades, and quality updates for developers who want fast, privacy-first utilities in the browser.

New Tool
June 2026

Image Editor — Lightroom-style photo editing in the browser

A full-featured, GPU-accelerated photo editor that runs entirely in your browser. Tone controls, color grading, local contrast, perspective correction, text overlays, and non-destructive editing with unlimited undo — all without uploading a single pixel.

Tone & Color

  • Exposure, Contrast, Highlights, Shadows, Whites, and Blacks — all GPU-accelerated via WebGL2 for real-time preview.
  • Temperature, Tint, Saturation, and Vibrance with Lightroom-style selective saturation curves.
  • Clarity, Texture, and Dehaze — local contrast and atmospheric haze correction for the full presence panel.
  • Sharpen with controllable amount and radius via unsharp mask.
  • Vignette with positive (lighten) and negative (darken) range.

Tools & Overlays

  • Crop with 8-handle overlay and rule-of-thirds grid. Rotation and straighten with auto-crop.
  • Perspective correction — drag 4 corner handles to fix converging lines or skewed shots.
  • Multiple text layers with font, size, weight, color, opacity, and rotation. Each layer is independently draggable.
  • HEIC/HEIF import support for iPhone photos.
  • Zoom up to 1600% with scroll-wheel pivot and Space+drag pan. Navigator thumbnail shows the current viewport.

Export & Pipeline

  • Export to JPEG, PNG, or WebP with adjustable quality slider.
  • All adjustments applied at full source resolution using an OffscreenCanvas export pipeline.
  • Text layers reproduced at full resolution in the exported file — what you see is what you get.
  • Non-destructive editing: every slider is re-adjustable at any time with unlimited undo.

100% private — nothing leaves your device

All rendering runs on your GPU via WebGL2. No server, no upload, no account. Your photos stay on your machine.

Release Roundup
June 2026

June 2026 Update — Tool Handoff, Groovebox, and a fresh new look

A batch of improvements across the toolbox: connect tools so output flows between them, make beats in the browser with the new Glicol Groovebox, resize photos in the Image Editor, import scripts into the Teleprompter, and enjoy a cleaner, more consistent design everywhere.

Tool Handoff

Pipe output from one tool to the next.

  • Send JSON straight from the JSON Validator into the JSON → SQL or JSON → TypeScript generators.
  • Hand off decoded Base64 and URL-encoder output to the next tool without copy-paste.
  • Pipe any text into the Text Counter, or turn a value into a QR code in one click.
  • Handoffs stay in your browser and expire after 30 minutes — nothing is sent to a server.

Glicol Groovebox

A new Labs step sequencer in the browser.

  • Step sequencer with kick, snare, hi-hat, bass, and synth tracks powered by Glicol WASM.
  • Per-step pitch, swing, and attack/decay shaping for expressive, evolving grooves.
  • Authentic 808 drum samples and a live Glicol code preview of your pattern.

Image Editor: Resize

Resize photos with aspect-ratio lock.

  • Resize photos to exact pixel dimensions right inside the Image Editor.
  • Optional aspect-ratio lock keeps width and height in proportion as you type.
  • Applied at full source resolution through the same non-destructive pipeline.

Teleprompter: File Import

Load scripts from .txt, .md, and .docx.

  • Import scripts directly from .txt, .md, and .docx files — no copy-paste from your editor.
  • Markdown headings and emphasis render in the prompter with safe HTML escaping.
  • Smoother, more reliable auto-scroll, including hands-free voice-controlled playback.
Open Teleprompter →

Unified Design Refresh

A consistent look across every page.

  • A consistent page layout, header, and card system across every tool and generator.
  • Unified panels, stats grids, and info cards for a cleaner, more readable interface.
  • A refreshed homepage with clearer color and structure.

Still 100% private

Every one of these runs entirely in your browser. Tool handoffs, audio, photos, and scripts stay on your device — no uploads, no accounts.

New App
April 2026

MindFlow — Binaural Beats & Brainwave Entrainment

A full-screen Labs app that generates binaural beats with an immersive 3D nebula visualization. Select a brainwave preset, put on headphones, and let the audio–visual experience guide your focus, meditation, or sleep.

What's included

  • Four brainwave presets — Delta (2 Hz), Theta (6 Hz), Alpha (10 Hz), Beta (20 Hz) — each tuned to a distinct mental state.
  • Ambient mode layers harmony oscillators and a filtered noise drone over the binaural carriers for a richer, warmer sound.
  • Immersive Three.js nebula visualization with breathing geometry, triple particle layers, and slow HSL color drift.
  • Base frequency slider (60–500 Hz) with per-preset sensible defaults and full URL share support.
  • Opens in a dedicated window so the experience stays uninterrupted while you work.
Major Update
April 2026

White Noise Generator gets live fine-tuning controls

The White Noise Generator has been upgraded with a more focused control layout and a real fine-tune stage for shaping the sound in the browser. It's built for sleep, focus, masking distractions, and low-distraction overnight playback.

What's new in the audio workflow

  • Play white, pink, or brown noise with a faster top-of-page control deck.
  • Shape the sound live with fine-tune EQ bands while playback is running.
  • Switch between mono or stereo playback with adjustable stereo width.
  • Use fullscreen black-screen mode for overnight listening or distraction-free focus.

Privacy-first audio playback

Noise generation and playback controls run locally in your browser, so there's no upload step and no listening history sent anywhere.

New Generator
April 2026

Crontab Generator is now live

We added a dedicated Crontab Generator for developers who need to create, inspect, and understand cron schedules quickly without memorizing field syntax.

From cron idea to ready-to-copy expression

  • Build cron expressions visually with separate minute, hour, day, month, and weekday controls.
  • Start from presets for common schedules like every 5 minutes, hourly, or daily runs.
  • Paste an existing cron expression to parse it back into editable fields.
  • Copy the finished expression and read a human-friendly explanation instantly.
New Generator

JSON → TypeScript Generator is now live

We launched a new generator focused on frontend API workflows. Paste JSON payloads and get both TypeScript definitions and Zod schemas in seconds, ready for type-safe integration.

API response to frontend-ready code

  • Paste raw API JSON from your backend responses.
  • Generate TypeScript interfaces or type aliases instantly.
  • Generate a matching Zod schema for runtime validation.
  • Copy output directly into your frontend codebase.

Runs entirely in your browser

JSON parsing and generation are client-side only, so your payloads stay on your device.

Update Timeline

Barcode Generator is now live

We launched a new online Barcode Generator designed for fast, production-ready output. It supports popular barcode standards for retail, logistics, and internal developer workflows, with bulk input and instant downloads.

Supported barcode formats

  • CODE128 for flexible alphanumeric labels and internal tracking IDs.
  • EAN-13, EAN-8, and UPC-A for retail and packaging use cases.
  • CODE39, ITF, and CODABAR for inventory, logistics, and healthcare labels.

Bulk workflow and exports

  • Paste one value per line for fast bulk barcode generation.
  • Validate every row against the selected format requirements.
  • Preview each generated barcode before downloading assets.
  • Export as SVG, PNG, or a ZIP bundle that includes both formats.

Privacy-first by default

Barcode generation runs client-side in your browser. Your input stays on your device while you generate and export SVG, PNG, or ZIP files.
