Introducing DevTools.ink: A Real-Time Developer Tools Status Dashboard – Your Feedback Matters
In the fast-paced world of software development, being quickly aware of service outages or slowdowns can save valuable time and reduce frustration. Recognizing this need, I recently developed a real-time monitoring platform designed specifically for developers to keep tabs on critical tools and services seamlessly.
Discover DevTools.ink
This intuitive platform provides instant, live updates on the status of popular developer services including GitHub, npm, Vercel, Docker Hub, AWS, and more. With straightforward URLs like devtools.ink/github, you can perform quick checks without navigating through multiple sites or waiting for status pages to load.
Key Features:
- Real-Time Service Monitoring: Get live updates on the health and availability of essential developer tools.
- Quick Access URLs: Easily access specific service statuses with simple links.
- ChatGPT Integration: Ask ChatGPT questions like “Is GitHub down?” for immediate insights.
- Clean, Uncluttered Interface: No advertisements—just clear, essential status information.
Built With Modern Technologies
The platform leverages Next.js 14 for its robust and flexible frontend, Redis (via Upstash) for efficient real-time data handling, and n8n workflows to automate data fetching and updates.
Why I Created This
Just yesterday, npm experienced regional issues that initially puzzled me. Checking DevTools.ink confirmed it wasn’t a problem on my end. This quick verification saved me about 20 minutes of troubleshooting — a small win that motivated me to build this tool.
Your Feedback Is Valuable
As this project evolves, I’m eager to hear from fellow developers. Are there additional services or tools you’d like integrated? How can DevTools.ink better serve your workflow?
Feel free to share your thoughts and suggestions in the comments. Happy debugging!
