Changelog & Updates

I have officially launched Secret, a highly secure password generator utility.

Key highlights of this release:

• Local Browser Processing: The tool runs entirely in your browser using the window.crypto.getRandomValues() API for cryptographic security. Passwords are generated locally and never transmitted.

• Custom Parameters: Granular controls allow you to adjust password length (from 8 up to 64 characters) and toggle specific character sets, including letters, numbers, and symbols.

• Instant Clipboard Access: Generate and instantly copy your secure password with a single click.

Upgraded the synthesiser architecture to support dual-timbral sound generation, acid-style chromatic sequencing, and a dedicated bass effects bus.

Key highlights of this update:

• Dual Synth Engines: Run two independent sound engines at the same time — sequence a heavy Moog Bass or FM Lead groove on the grid while playing chords live on the keyboard with SuperSaw.

• Acid-Style Step Sequencer: Each step on the sequencer row now features integrated chromatic pitch selection (C2 to C3) with instant note-off toggling for flexible bassline programming.

• Dedicated Bass FX Strip: Positioned directly beneath the sequencer grid, a parallel signal path provides independent Reverb (REV), Saturation/Drive (SHP), and tempo-synced Delay (DLY) isolated from the main live mix effects.

Integrated full support for Google Cloud Text-to-Speech API integration with extended voice libraries and export capabilities.

Key highlights of this update:

• Expanded Voice Library: Connect your API key to unlock Google’s full suite of high-fidelity Neural2, Journey, and Studio voices.

• Direct Audio Export: Download synthesized speech audio files directly in the browser—ideal for video narration, voiceovers, and media projects.

• Client-Side Security: Keys are stored strictly in local browser storage and never transmitted to external servers. Anyone can set up a free Google Cloud Console account and generate a key in minutes.

I have officially launched Combo, a new utility that converts Word documents to PDF and merges multiple PDFs into one, in seconds.

Here is a breakdown of the new tool's capabilities:

• Local Browser Processing: Combo runs entirely inside your browser, so documents are read, converted and merged on your own machine. Nothing is sent to or held on a server, which makes it safe for sensitive files like contracts and medical letters.

• Word to PDF Conversion: Word files are rebuilt as proper A4 PDFs with selectable, searchable text. Headings, bold, italic, underline, lists, tables, quotes, images and working links all carry through.

• Document Merging: Drop PDFs and Word files onto the page, arrange them into any order, and pull out only the pages you need.

• No Queues or Costs: Because there are no uploads, documents are processed almost instantly. Combo is free and needs no sign-up, account or email address, with no page limits and no watermarks on the output.

Site changes and final development are now complete.

Released major feature additions including Cover Note Generation and an integrated Company Research lookup engine:

• Tailored Cover Notes: Instantly generate a concise, grounded cover letter matching your original or refined CV directly against the role description, complete with one-click copying and PDF export.

• Company Research Engine: Conduct instant employer lookups to retrieve verified organization snapshots (size, sector, headquarters), recent company developments, culture insights, potential interview talking points mapped to your background, and targeted questions to ask.

Enhanced folder inspection and workspace editing to support .js JavaScript files.

You can now open local folders, view script files, and directly edit or overwrite them in-place on your filesystem without requiring a manual export step.
