FckSignups
Open Source Tools. Zero Bullsh*t.
A curated collection of open-source tools you can use instantly in your browser — no accounts, no emails, no tracking. Just tools that work.
What is this?
FckSignups is a single-file, dependency-free directory of browser-based tools that respect your time. No signups. No dark patterns. No "create an account to continue." Just open the page, find a tool, and use it.
The entire site is one HTML file. No build step. No npm. No framework. Open it in any browser and it works.
