14 Killer Web Applications to Boost Your Productivity 🚀💯

In this article, I've compiled some of the most useful web apps that you can use to increase your productivity.

Each tool will include a direct link, a description, and an image preview.

Great suggestions. Thanks.
I do want to warn other beginner devs about using domain name checkers - in most cases resellers run these and if you'll put your domain name there and won't buy it in following days, it is possible resellers will buy it to sell. Had this happen once.

I used TickTick for a stretch last year and then switched to ToDoist. I like both for different reasons, and they have some overlap in features. I actually pay for ToDoist premium but use it kinda sporadically (surprise!).
My challenge with ToDo apps is I dump too much aspirational stuff and task “ideas” in there, and then have trouble filtering the signal from the noise
