DevKnife Update 1.3.0
In version 1.3.0 of DevKnife, I’ve added Dark Mode, a new Text Inspector tool, and an IndexNow submission tool, along with several performance improvements and fixes. This update makes DevKnife more comfortable to use day and night while adding even more useful utilities for developers.
Dark Mode
One of the most requested features is finally here. DevKnife now adapts to your macOS appearance setting, switching between light and dark themes automatically. It is easier on the eyes during late-night work sessions and blends perfectly with your system’s look.

IndexNow Tool
The new IndexNow tool helps you submit your sitemap URLs directly to search engines that support the IndexNow protocol. Enter your sitemap URL and API key, and DevKnife handles the rest by fetching your sitemap, extracting URLs, and submitting them automatically. It is a fast and developer-friendly way to keep your site’s content indexed.

Text Inspector
The new Text Inspector tool gives you quick stats about your text, such as word count, character count, line count, reading time, and more. It is a simple but powerful utility for anyone who writes or edits text in their workflow, from documentation to blog posts.

- Improved performance of the code editor across all tools.
- Fixed an issue where the JWT debugger worked only with the HS512 algorithm.
- Various UI tweaks and stability improvements.
