Sizzy 45
In this version, we focused on some internal changes and bug fixes for improving the overall stability of the app, but we also made sure to include some useful features.
Also, we're switching to a 2-week release cycle, which will give us more time for working on some more complex features that we want to implement.
Let's see what's new!
New Butler feature: Calculator
You can say that now Butler has some ... math skills!
Get it? Mad skills? Math skills? Anyone? Nevermind.
You don't have to open a Calculator if you want to do a quick calculation. You can do that directly in
And yes, we're well aware that the first thing that you're going to try is to break this feature and find a bug. Good luck!
New Butler feature: Kill Port
What is that annoying process that's hogging up port 3000? Let's google "how to kill a port" and open the terminal for the 1493813th time...
Not anymore! Just type kill in Butler and type the port that you want to kill. Boom. Gone.
New Butler feature: Get internal/external IP address
Yup, no need to open the Terminal and google how to do this every time. Just type ip in Butler and you'll get both your internal and external IP address.
New Butler feature: Color converter
Convert different color formats directly in Butler. Nifty!
New Butler feature: Create notes and todos
Even if you're not using
New Butler feature: Encode and decode strings
You can encode and decode any string in a variety of formats.
New Butler feature: Search and navigate to any tab in settings
New Butler feature: Generate a bcrypted string
You can directly get a bcrypt-ed string from Butler. Might be useful for creating bcrypted passwords on the fly.
New Butler feature: Generate uuid
Yup, no need to visit some shady website in order to get a random uuid. Butler is here to help!
The Scroll To Selector plugin can remain active after the popup is closed
The "Scroll to selector" plugin is one of the most useful features in Sizzy. It allows you to write a CSS selector, and all of the devices will automatically scroll to it.
Now, when you close the plugin popup, if you have written a selector the plugin will remain active (indicated with the green dot), and even after refresh all of your devices will scroll to that selector.
