Thanks! You're totally right .Making everything run 100% in the browser without a backend saved a ton of time. And the catalog has actually expanded to 96+ tools now!
To be honest, I built this using Google Antigravity (AI) to generate and manage the code, so I wasn't typing out every tool line-by-line by hand!
Even with AI, the main site scaffolding broke the most at first. Whenever we updated shared things like the header or site layout, it would accidentally break older tool pages. Once we created a strict, fixed template for the tools to follow, scaling up became much smoother!

64 tools in 30 days is a brutal pace - that's a tool every 11 hours including sleep. the 100% client-side constraint probably saved you, no backend to babysit. what broke most often at that speed, the tools themselves or the shared scaffolding?
