Tool widgets
Every launcher tool is also a widget. A tool widget hosts the same engine as the launcher, with a text box on top and the result below. Click a result to copy it.

Good to know
Section titled “Good to know”- Generators (password, UUID, lorem ipsum) show results straight away and have a ↻ button to make new values.
- What you type is not saved. A tool box can contain tokens, JSON or commands, so it is empty after a reload.
- Open a file instead of typing. The JSON, YAML/TOML, CSV, URL and HTML widgets have an Open file… button, and you can also drop a file onto the box. The file’s text is put in the box, as if you had pasted it. Files up to 1 MB are accepted, and they must be UTF-8 text. The text diff has the same button above each side; drop two files on it to fill Original and Changed together. The Hash and Base64 widgets take any file, up to 20 MB, and work on its raw bytes, so the hash matches what
sha256sumorcertutilgives for the file. Files are read in your browser and never uploaded. - Fetching tools (Open Graph viewer, Can I use) wait for a button or Ctrl+Enter where they would otherwise fetch on every keystroke, and say so in the tile.
- Keyboard shortcuts only apply while focus is inside that widget, and they use Ctrl+Enter, because plain Enter stays free for typing.
- Tools that need space, such as the regex tester and text diff, work best in a wide tile. Resize freely.
