What is a tool?
A tool is a single HTML file: page, look and program all in one. Calculators, lists, timers, games, music tools – anything a web page can do that fits in one file.
Four ways to get tools
Tools get into the toolbox in four ways:
- Have it made Have a tool made as an HTML file, for example by an AI assistant, then share it with the toolbox or paste the code.
- Write it yourself The editor has highlighting, line numbers, search, seven templates (Empty, List, Counter, Calculator, Timer, Random, Converter), code snippets, a preview and 3, 5 or 10 earlier versions.
- Share Pick “Artefakt Toolbox” in the Android share menu, from Chrome, Files or a chat.
- File or download Choose one or more .html files from your device or paste code from the clipboard. Ready-made, checked tools are in the gallery to download.
Placed on the shelf
Every tool sits in your library as a cassette. You search (also via the magnifier in the navigation), filter by category and tags, mark favorites and give it an icon, color or your own photo. The toolbox recognizes identical files as duplicates, and the same name becomes a new version.
Start and use
One tap starts the tool in full screen, the back gesture returns you. Each tool’s data is kept, and the toolbox works without a connection (tools that need the internet themselves, of course, do not). Focus mode keeps the screen on and hides prompts. Tools such as music or a timer can keep running in the background. The toolbox shows errors in a tool, and “Change with AI” hands the tool and your wish back to the chat.
Pass on and back up
With ⋮ › Share you send a tool as an .html file through the Android share menu, optionally with your data as a starting point. A backup saves all tools with their data in one file that you import again on a new device.
What tools can do
Everything a web page can do, in one file:
Possible
- Anything a web page can do: input, calculation, sound and music, clipboard, vibration, full screen, sharing.
- Its own data per tool, kept after a restart.
- Microphone and camera, but only with your permission. A database of its own (IndexedDB) also runs isolated.
- Linking tools: a tool can send data to another one or open it if you allow that for exactly this pair.
Where the limits are
Limits
- A tool is exactly one file, projects made of several files do not work.
- Tools run isolated. With the extended permission (microphone, camera) they no longer do: allow it only for tools you trust. A tool only reaches other tools if you allow it.
- No accounts, no cloud sync, backups are made as a file.
- Android with Chrome only, Play Store version in preparation.
