## What it is
A fast, lightweight Rust CLI utility toolkit that bundles many common developer utilities (encoding, hashing, JWT, UUID generation, and more) into a single binary. It is inspired by it-tools.tech and eliminates the need to install multiple separate utilities or visit websites for simple tasks.

## Use cases
- encode and decode base64 from the command line
- generate md5 or sha256 hashes of text
- encode, decode, and verify JWT tokens
- generate UUIDs quickly in scripts
- hash and verify bcrypt passwords
- replace multiple small utilities with one binary

## When to choose
- you want a single fast binary covering many common dev utilities
- you work in the terminal and want shell completions
- you want an offline alternative to web-based tool sites like it-tools.tech

## When to avoid
- you need a GUI or web interface for these utilities
- you need highly specialized tools beyond the bundled set
- you prefer language-specific libraries over a CLI

## Facets
- artifact type: cli-tool
- maturity: active
- function: cli, serialization, cryptography, data-generation, developer-tools, parser
- domain: developer-tools, security
- platform: cli, windows, rust
- tags: utility-toolbox, base64, hashing, jwt, uuid, single-binary, it-tools-alternative, command-line, automation, linux, macos
