Things that run in your browser

Small tools, grouped by topic below, almost all of them built with Claude Code; the ideas, the maths and the responsibility for the mistakes are ours. None of them asks you for anything: every "Sign in to continue" on the web costs a little soul, and soul does not grow back.

All tools here run entirely in your browser. Nothing you enter is sent, stored or tracked.

Making Things (4)
  • Terrain Erosion Simulator Simulate hydraulic erosion on a heightmap: rain droplets carve gullies and sediment fans, with live 3D preview and 16 bit PNG export.
  • Heightmap to STL Turn a grayscale heightmap (8 or 16 bit PNG) into watertight STL terrain tiles for 3D printing, with 3D preview and anti-warping options.
  • QR Code Generator Free colours, transparent background, PNG and SVG export. The error-correction slider shows which modules carry data and which redundancy.
  • PCB Art Designer Turn an image into a light-up PCB: paint with a material palette, then export order-ready Gerber and Excellon files or a KiCad project.
Language Modelling (7)
  • Token & Character Counter Paste text and count tokens, characters, words, sentences, lines and bytes live - with the o200k_base tokenizer (GPT-4o / o-series) and a colored token view.
  • Claude Code settings.json Generator Click together a Claude Code settings.json: permission rules, path rules resolved against the scope you pick, model, environment variables and defaults.
  • System Prompt Builder Click together a personal system prompt for your chatbot: pick a variant per aspect or leave it out, edit any block, copy the result as Markdown - in English or German.
  • Local LLM Frontier What is the best language model your GPU can run? VRAM math for weights and KV cache, honest quality bands and rough speed.
  • LLM Detector Paste English or German text and get a calibrated probability that a language model wrote it, with the typical phrases marked and the driving features shown.
  • Language Zipper Paste a sentence and a character model trained on 87 languages says which one it is, plus a family tree built from how cheaply each explains the others.
  • Text Corruptor Zalgo with a gradient: draw a curve of how corrupted the text gets from first character to last, with fourteen effects landing on whole clauses.
Models & Uncertainty (5)
  • Quap Lab Write a Bayesian model as a formula list, load your data as CSV or JSON and fit it by quadratic approximation. Follows McElreath's Statistical Rethinking.
  • Input Shaping Calculator Driving a damped spring-mass system without residual vibration: ZV/ZVD/ZVDD/EI shapers, step response and sensitivity curve.
  • Drug Concentration Visualiser Pharmacokinetic blood-level curves: drag intake times, combine doses and immediate/extended-release forms, and watch steady-state accumulation.
  • Leverage & Ruin How much leverage is too much? Monte Carlo simulation of a leveraged ETF: volatility drag, the Kelly optimum, break-even leverage and wipe-out probability.
  • Race Time Predictor Enter your running PBs (10K, marathon, …) and get predictions for every other distance - Riegel formula with a personally fitted fatigue exponent.
Playground (6)
  • A Model of PsychohistoryExperimental Posterior predictive futures of a galactic civilization: a coupled stochastic model with priors, interventions and credible bands.
  • Ruler Title Finder You are newly in power and need a title. Seven questions, a transparent fit score, and 44 historical ruler titles with their real history.
  • Grabby Aliens SimulatorExperimental Simulate the grabby aliens model in 3D: expanding civilizations fill the universe and suppress later ones, with honest numbers on how early humanity is.
  • Lambda Diagrams Type a lambda-calculus expression, see it drawn as a Tromp diagram, and watch beta reduction morph it smoothly, step by step. Church numerals, combinators and your own terms.
  • Ripple Tank A live wave simulation, full screen: drop in slits, lenses and prisms or paint walls freehand, and watch diffraction and refraction happen.
  • Reaction Diffusion Two chemicals, four numbers and a full screen. Drag across the feed/kill plane and watch the pattern turn from solitons into worms into dividing cells.
Games (3)
  • Flow Field DefenseExperimental A maze tower defense that draws the field the enemies actually walk on: cost to go, threat coverage and where the crowd will really be.
  • Cobra 6DOFExperimental A wireframe Cobra flown through a gridded box with a 3D mouse, as a real rigid body with its inertia tensor integrated over the mesh. Needs a SpaceNavigator.
  • Asteroid CorridorExperimental A corridor of slowly turning asteroids, flown with a 3D mouse, with no clock and nothing to reach. Collisions run against the drawn surface, craters and all.
For Parents (8)
  • Name Finder Browse and filter hundreds of german baby names.
  • Parental Leave Planner for Germany (Elterngeld) A grid over 24 life months where both parents assign Basis, ElterngeldPlus or Partnerschaftsbonus, with total payout and a Pareto front of time against cost.
  • Pregnancy Timeline Maps pregnancy symptoms over pregnancy weeks. Also risk curves for miscarriage probability and premature birth survival.
  • Child Development Timeline Visualizes developmental milestones across domains. Overlaid with WHO percentile growth charts for weight and height.
  • Honest Due Date Calculator Models the birth date as a skew-normal distribution with an evidence-based expected due date, based on multiple factors.
  • Birth Decisions ExplorerExperimental Explore the choices around birth: picking an option locks incompatible ones and explains why, with quantified effects and an evidence rating per statement.
  • Infographic: Baby Sleep, Feeding & Crying Total sleep and longest continuous night stretch, feeding frequency (breast vs. formula), and crying and fussing duration per day.
  • Infographic: Daycare Infections Infections per year and sick days per year, shown as P10–P90 bands.
Books (2)
  • Book Recommender Rate the fantasy & sci-fi books you know and get recommendations with calibrated probabilities and a taste map.
  • E-Book Converter Convert EPUB, MOBI, AZW3, Markdown, HTML and plain text into nine formats, one file or a whole batch.
Images (9)
  • Background Remover Remove a white or single-coloured background in your browser: flood fill keeps enclosed areas, and an AI mode decides what belongs to the subject.
  • Image Editor Crop, scale, rotate, draw, add text and pull a slanted facade straight, on a non-destructive operation stack you can reorder and roll back.
  • Painting Simulator Paint with pigments instead of pixels: colors mix by Kubelka-Munk optics, so blue and yellow make green, and the brush runs out of paint.
  • Color Extractor Find which colors a photo or logo is really made of and copy them as hex, CSS or JSON: eight palettes from two to nine colors, each with its share.
  • Color Grading Grade a photo in the browser: color wheels, curves, HSL secondaries, split toning and live scopes, plus a tab that develops a Sony ARW raw. Export PNG, JPEG or a .cube LUT.
  • Patch Similarity Explorer Click a spot in an image and see how similar every other region is, from DINOv3 patch features computed in your browser (a 15 MB model, no server).
  • Pixel to VectorExperimental Convert a PNG, JPEG or WebP into a clean SVG in your browser: black-and-white tracing with subpixel accuracy, or a color mode with one layer per color.
  • Colormap DesignerExperimental Build a colormap for the constrained case: colours partly given, or the quantity an angle. A dozen candidates per run, each with its damage report.
  • Pixel ForensicsExperimental Maps over a photograph that show what the eye does not: the JPEG block grid, the quantisation table the pixels remember, noise and traces of scaling. No verdicts.
Music (4)
  • Choir Part TrainerExperimental Practise your own part from a MusicXML or MIDI score: your voice loud and the rest quiet, slower tempo, transposition, scrolling notation and live pitch feedback.
  • Sheet to MIDIExperimental Upload a PDF of cleanly engraved choir music and get practice MIDI back: music recognition in your browser, per-voice playback, export as MIDI and MusicXML.
  • Sing TrainerExperimental Practice hitting the right notes: scrolling sheet music, live pitch detection from your microphone, generated melodies, scales and hold-the-note drills for every voice type.
  • Vowel Map See which vowel you are singing: the first two formants are estimated live from your microphone by LPC and your voice wanders through the vowel chart.
Everyday (5)
  • Subway Sauce Guide Which sauce goes with which Subway sandwich? Heatmap with switchable color scale.
  • Sun over Regensburg Will the sun still reach this spot at 20:15? Click anywhere on the map of Regensburg and the official surface model answers, buildings and trees included.
  • When to Close the Windows Should you shut the windows the moment it is warmer outside than in? A thermal simulation of every combination of closing and reopening time.
  • Meal-Prep-PlanerExperimental Turns a week of meals into one Sunday batch-cooking timeline, a merged shopping list and a note per dish.
  • Self-Guided Walking Tour (Budapest) A walking tour in the browser, with no app, account or signal: a site plan from OpenStreetMap, a numbered route, and one text per stop. Saves for offline use.
