[Paid] Wring: 12 offline developer tools in the macOS menu bar
Hi r/MacApps, I’m Ashwani, the maker of Wring.Problem:
I kept opening browser tools for small developer tasks like decoding JWTs, formatting JSON, testing regex, generating hashes, converting timestamps, comparing text, and managing .env values.That felt annoying for two reasons:It broke my flow while working in my editor or terminal.Some of that data can be sensitive, and I did not want to paste tokens, JSON, secrets, or .env values into random web tools.So I built Wring, a native macOS menu bar app with 12 offline developer tools.It includes:
JWT Inspector, JSON Formatter, Regex Tester, Hash Generator, Encoder / Decoder, Text Diff, Timestamp Converter, Cron Parser, Color Converter, UUID Generator, .env Manager, and Load Monitor.Comparison:
The closest alternatives are apps like DevUtils and DevToys.Wring is different because it is focused on being a small menu bar utility drawer rather than a larger toolbox window. It is built around quick access, local processing, and privacy.There is no account, no app analytics, no telemetry, no cloud sync, and no app network access. .env values are stored in the macOS Keychain.Pricing:
Wring is a one-time purchase on the Mac App Store.Price: $4.99 USD, with local App Store pricing depending on country.App Store:
