Reviews of the most interesting devtools and latest beta releases.
Here's the latest newsletter sent on 2025-05-29.
Each week we review 2—3 of the most interesting developer tools. Here's what we featured this week.
Batch renaming CLI.
Rename directories and files. Runs in dry run mode by default with safety checks (conflict free) for each operation. Detected conflicts can be automatically resolved. Supports variables, string replacements, regex, Exif & ID3 data lookup. Easily undo renames.
There are some differences across platforms due to how each OS works - worth being aware of when working with different systems.
macOS keyboard shortcuts & workflows.
Create workflows and automated actions based on triggers - launching or closing an app, switching window, keyboard shortcuts, F-keys. Workflows can run concurrently and sequentially. Build workflows using the GUI and write scripts with output & environment variables. Organize windows to automatically set up a work environment.
Macros are ephemeral so are lost on restart. macOS only.
Here's the interesting beta and early access releases we featured this week.
CI analysis and job failure alerts.
AI assistant for the terminal.
Git-native dotfiles management.
uv kernel for Jupyter.
