Quick Start

Easy start (recommended — no command line needed)

Install Python 3.10+ once (on Windows, tick "Add Python to PATH" during install), then:

OS	What to do
Windows	Double-click run.bat
macOS	Double-click run.command. First time only, open Terminal in this folder and run chmod +x run.command (macOS strips the executable bit on downloads).
Linux	chmod +x run.sh && ./run.sh

The launcher creates a virtual environment, installs dependencies, starts the server, and opens your browser automatically. Close the window to stop. Subsequent runs skip the setup step.

Simple Use (Dockerfile + docker-compose)

Click here and just double-click start.bat without the need to install the prerequisites.

Manual install

If you prefer full control:

# Clone the repository (pick any mirror — they track the same branch)
git clone https://github.com/listyantidewi1/your-everyday-tools.git
# or: git clone https://codeberg.org/listyantidewi/your-everyday-tools.git
# or: git clone https://bitbucket.org/your-everyday-tools/your-every-tools.git
# (Optional) SSH: git clone git@github.com:listyantidewi1/your-everyday-tools.git
cd your-everyday-tools

# Create a virtual environment (recommended)
python -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate        # Linux/macOS
venv\Scripts\activate           # Windows

# Install dependencies
pip install -r requirements.txt

# Run
python app.py

Open http://localhost:5000 in your browser.

Optional Dependencies

The core app works out of the box with the main dependencies. Some features require additional packages that may need system-level libraries:

Package	Feature	Notes
rembg	Remove Background	Installs ONNX Runtime (~500 MB). The app works without it and shows a helpful message if missing.
pyzbar	Read QR Code	Requires the ZBar shared library on your system.
pdf2docx	PDF to Word	Pure Python, but conversion quality depends on PDF complexity.
pytesseract	Image to Text (OCR), OCR PDF	Requires the Tesseract binary installed on your system. For non-English OCR, download the matching *.traineddata language pack into your Tesseract tessdata folder.
ezdxf + matplotlib	CAD to PDF/Image	Renders DXF drawings. For DWG support, also install the free ODA File Converter and make sure it's on your PATH.
ffmpeg (external)	All Audio & Video tools	Requires the FFmpeg binary on your PATH. Each media tool page shows a green banner if FFmpeg is detected, with install instructions if not.
sqlparse, croniter, jsonpath-ng	SQL Formatter, Cron Parser, JSONPath Tester	Small pure-Python packages included in requirements.txt. Everything else under Developer Utilities runs entirely in the browser.

If you only need the core tools, install the minimal set:

pip install Flask Pillow PyMuPDF "qrcode[pil]" markdown reportlab img2pdf python-docx openpyxl xlrd

Enabling DWG support (ODA File Converter)

DXF files work out of the box once you install ezdxf and matplotlib. For DWG files, the app shells out to the free ODA File Converter (by Open Design Alliance) to convert DWG → DXF, then renders the DXF. There is no reliable pure-Python library that reads DWG, so this extra step is necessary.

1. Download the installer for your OS from opendesign.com. It's a free guest download — no account required.

2. Run the installer. Defaults are fine.

3. Add it to your PATH so the Flask app can find it. The app looks for a binary named ODAFileConverter or oda_file_converter using shutil.which().

   • Windows — add the install folder (contains ODAFileConverter.exe) to your Path:

     • Press Win + R → sysdm.cpl → Advanced tab → Environment Variables
     • Under System variables, select Path → Edit → New → paste the folder, e.g.:

       C:\Program Files\ODA\ODAFileConverter 26.4.0
       

     • Click OK, open a new terminal, run where ODAFileConverter to verify.

   • macOS — symlink the binary into /usr/local/bin:

     sudo ln -s /Applications/ODAFileConverter.app/Contents/MacOS/ODAFileConverter /usr/local/bin/ODAFileConverter
     

     Verify with which ODAFileConverter.

   • Linux — the .deb / .rpm package usually installs the binary on PATH automatically. If not:

     sudo ln -s /opt/ODAFileConverter_QT5*/ODAFileConverter /usr/local/bin/ODAFileConverter
     

     Verify with which ODAFileConverter.

4. Restart the Flask server. PATH is read once at startup, so a running server won't see the new entry. After restart, the CAD tool page will show a green "DWG support is enabled" banner.

No ODA, no problem: if you can't install it (e.g. on a restricted machine), open your DWG in free tools like Autodesk Viewer, LibreCAD, or QCAD, export as DXF, then upload the DXF here.

Architecture Notes

• One universal template — upload_tool.html powers all 25+ server-side tools. Each route passes title, description, accepted file types, and form options as template variables. No per-tool template duplication.
• Client-side tools (text utilities, calculators, security tools) run entirely in the browser with vanilla JavaScript — zero server round-trips.
• In-memory processing — all file operations use BytesIO. No temporary files are written to disk.
• No CSS framework — custom CSS with CSS Grid, Flexbox, and CSS custom properties. The only external resource is Bootstrap Icons via CDN (~100 KB) for the icon set.
• Graceful degradation — heavy optional packages (rembg, pyzbar, pdf2docx, pytesseract) and external binaries (ODA File Converter, FFmpeg) are probed at import time via importlib / shutil.which. If missing, the affected tool shows a clear install instruction instead of crashing.

Configuration

The app has sensible defaults. You can adjust these in app.py:

Setting	Default	Description
MAX_CONTENT_LENGTH	100 MB	Maximum upload file size
debug	True	Flask debug mode (disable in production)
port	5000	Server port

---

Deployment

For production use, run with a WSGI server instead of the built-in Flask server:

pip install gunicorn
gunicorn -w 4 -b 0.0.0.0:8000 app:app

On Windows, use waitress instead:

pip install waitress
waitress-serve --port=8000 app:app
