Show HN: Prism.Tools – Now 100% Offline capable

[BLGardner]

I've completely overhauled Prism.Tools to be 100% offline-capable and privacy-focused, with significant tool improvements.

WHAT CHANGED?

- Dependencies: Moved from external CDN libraries to LOCAL libraries only (/lib folder) - Privacy: Zero external requests now (no potential CDN tracking) - Offline Use: Works completely offline after download (no internet required) - Licenses: All licenses included (/lib/license/) - Assets: Local Web Safe fonts (/tools/fonts/)

TOOL UPDATES:

1. ASCII Art Generator: - Improved performance using FIGlet.js Credit: Created by Glenn Chappell and other FIGlet contributors - Animate button cycles through all fonts for quick review

2. SVG Editor: - Completely reworked with expanded capabilities - Educational design with help tooltips - Professional features (transform engine, gradients, grouping) - Beginner-friendly with default example to explore features

3. Other Updated Tools: - Code Formatter, Diff Checker, Hash Generator, SQL Formatter, YAML/JSON Converter, QR Code Generator - All libraries for these tools are now local

4. Two new tools, now 48 tools total: - HTML Viewer, Image Metadata Viewer

FOR GITHUB PAGES VISITORS: You're already using latest version but be sure to Refresh the pages! >> https://blgardner.github.io/prism.tools

TESTING OFFLINE FUNCTIONALITY: 1. Download complete repository 2. Disconnect from internet 3. Open index.html in browser 4. Test all tools - should work normally

TIP: Use Chrome's "Application" tab in Developer Tools to verify no network requests are made.

Q: Why these changes? A: To ensure privacy and provide reliable, always-available tools regardless of internet connectivity.

Q: What if I don't update? A: Old versions will eventually break when CDNs change or shut down. They also send data to third parties.
