v2.1.0 Major Release June 2026
Liquid Glass, Dashboard, new Graphics tools, a built-in HTTP Client, and Quick Switch. The biggest visual update since launch.
Design
  • Liquid Glass Mode

    Toggle a translucent glass interface using macOS 26 native blur materials. The window blurs your real desktop for a stunning frosted-glass effect. Toggle any time in Settings.

  • Dashboard Home Screen

    A brand-new home screen shows all 60+ tools in a 3-column card grid, organized by category. Replaces the empty state when no tool is selected. One click to jump to any tool.

  • Quick Switch (⌘P)

    A keyboard-first tool launcher overlay. Press ⌘P anywhere in the app to search and jump to any tool without touching the mouse.

New Tools: Graphics
  • Tailwind Colors

    Full Tailwind CSS v3 palette: 22 color families x 11 shades. Click any swatch to copy hex, rgb, or hsl. Searchable and filterable.

  • Color Palettes

    12 hand-curated design palettes with swatch cards. Click any color to copy instantly.

  • SVG Editor

    Side-by-side SVG code editor with a live browser preview. See your changes render in real time as you type.

New Tools: Dev Utils
  • HTTP Client

    A full HTTP request tool built right into Devly. Set method, URL, headers, and body, then send and inspect the response without leaving the app.

  • ULID Generator

    Universally Unique Lexicographically Sortable Identifier generator added to the Hashing category.

v2.0.0 Major Release April 2026
Devly CLI
  • Command Line Interface

    All 60+ Devly tools are now available from your terminal. Install with Homebrew: brew install aarush67/tap/devlycli

  • Pipe-friendly I/O

    Pipe input from other commands, read from files with --path, and export output with --export. Chain Devly with your existing workflow.

  • Smart Timeouts

    Auto-adjusts timeout based on input size (30s for <512KB up to 180s for 50MB+). Override with --timeout flag.

  • Resource Awareness

    Limits memory usage to 30% of system RAM. Estimates memory upfront and rejects jobs that would exceed limits before processing begins.

  • Direct File Reading

    Use --path flag for large files. The CLI reads files directly without copying through shared storage for better performance.

v1.3.1 Bug Fix 2026
Fixes
  • Random String Generator

    Fixed an issue where the Random String Generator did not adhere to the selected settings.

v1.3.0 New Features 2026
UUID: Complete Version Support
  • UUID v1: Time-based (MAC address, RFC 9562)

    Gregorian timestamp with 100-nanosecond intervals since Oct 15, 1582, combined with a 16-bit clock sequence and 48-bit random node ID. Sortable by generation timestamp.

  • UUID v2: DCE Security (RFC 9562)

    Extends v1, replacing the low 32 bits of the timestamp with a local domain identifier (UID, GID, or organizational domain). Includes 8-bit domain field for security context.

  • UUID v3: MD5 Name-based (RFC 9562)

    Creates deterministic UUIDs from a namespace and name using MD5 hashing. Supports standard namespaces (DNS, URL, OID, X500). Identical inputs always produce identical UUIDs.

  • UUID v4: Random (existing, improved)

    Single and batch generation with proper RFC 4122 variant bits.

  • UUID v5: SHA-1 Name-based (RFC 9562)

    Deterministic UUIDs using SHA-1 instead of MD5. Preferred over v3 for new applications.

  • UUID v6: Gregorian timestamp, lexicographically sortable (RFC 9562)

    Time-based with reordered bits so most significant timestamp bits come first, enabling efficient database indexing and natural sort order.

  • UUID v7: Unix epoch timestamp (RFC 9562)

    Modern timestamp-based UUID using milliseconds since Unix epoch (48 bits) with 12 bits of random data. Sortable with millisecond precision, ideal for database primary keys.

  • UUID v8: Custom format (RFC 9562)

    RFC 9562 custom-format UUID for implementation-specific use cases. Proper version and variant bits set, with 122 bits of cryptographically random data by default.

  • Nil UUID: All zeros

    Complete support for all nine UUID versions (nil, v1–v8) with correct RFC 4122 variant bits (bits 64–65) and version bits (bits 48–51).

v1.2.0 New Features 2026
New Tools
  • Markdown Live Preview

    Paste Markdown and see a beautifully rendered preview side-by-side with the HTML output. Toggle between Preview and HTML with one click.

  • URL Decoding

    Added URL decoding support alongside the existing encoder.

Improvements
  • Smart Quote Auto-Conversion

    Curly quotes and smart apostrophes are automatically converted to straight equivalents so pasted text works correctly in every tool.

Bug Fixes
  • Favorites & Recents sections no longer overlap each other or category items in the sidebar

  • Pasting Markdown no longer shows an "Invalid input" error; live preview renders immediately

  • Resolved text overlapping issues throughout the sidebar and output areas

  • Markdown images (![alt](url)) now render correctly instead of being parsed as links

v1.1.2 New Features 2026
New Features
  • Customizable Sidebar

    Reorder tools, hide categories, and rearrange tools within categories to match exactly how you work.

  • Window Position Restore

    Devly now remembers where you left the window and restores it on next launch.

v1.1.0 New Features 2026
New Features
  • Standalone Window Mode

    Devly can now open as a full standalone window, giving you complete flexibility beyond the menu bar. Use it however fits your workflow.
