You need to merge text files or just compare their content and don’t want to rely on GNU Diff? Go and give it a try: Notepad++Ī very powerful text editor with a plugin system, language support, and column-based editing. For example, to test REST APIs as done in this video introducing the Elastic Search REST API: WinMerge

Fiddler Web DebuggerĪ very useful tool for sending web requests and debug what’s going on. Since then I switched to fakeSMTP as an easy to alternative written in Java.

NET Framework 3.5 which is required by smtp4dev. I faced issues on some Windows 10 machines with running. The tool runs in the tray and can be opened to see the emails send. If your application sends an email to a localhost hosted port 25 SMTP server, this email is received and can be viewed or saved. smtp4devĪ very useful small tool for windows simulating an SMTP server on localhost.

It’s just a collection of tools that I found useful sometime. Ok, this collection is definitely tech-biased and when mentioning “digital life” it does not mean reading an ebook but getting in touch with the technology in the background.ĭisclaimer: There is no claim for completeness, independent assessment, or anything else.
