Yolosoft Packly
A lightweight toolbox of developer utilities designed for fast iteration and CI automation.
Packly by Yolosoft
Packly is a lightweight web toolbox for the small-but-important tasks that keep front-end builds clean and predictable. Use Packly in your browser for quick fixes, or integrate the public APIs into scripts and CI/CD.
Today, Packly ships with a production-ready Asset Minifier (CSS & JS). Over time, more utilities can be added as the product grows.
At a glance
Packly utilities are built around fast UI workflows, clear documentation, and automation-friendly integrations.
What is Packly?
Packly is Yolosoft’s growing set of compact, practical developer utilities. Instead of a single all-in-one platform, Packly focuses on tools you reach for every week: minifying assets, validating inputs, formatting payloads, and automating tiny build steps.
The goal is simple: help teams standardize small tasks so releases stay quick, consistent, and easy to repeat.
Design principles
- UI-first: instant results, no refresh (AJAX)
- API-ready: public endpoints for automation
- Predictable responses: consistent JSON envelope for APIs
- Defensive limits: validated payloads and size constraints
- Responsive + animated: mobile-friendly UX using scroll reveal
If you’re building internal tooling or integrating utilities into pipelines, Packly is designed to fit into that workflow without adding ceremony.
For developers
Paste, optimize, and copy output in seconds while you’re in the middle of a task.
For teams
Standardize small build steps so output stays consistent across projects.
For pipelines
Use public JSON endpoints to automate repetitive transformations in CI/CD.
Current utility: Asset Minifier (CSS & JS)
Minify CSS and JavaScript from one interface. Copy minified output, download .min.css/.min.js, or export a ZIP for sharing and releases.
UI workflow
- Open the minifier UI: /minifier: /minifier
- Paste CSS or JS and adjust advanced settings if needed
- Click Minify (AJAX) to get results without page refresh
- Copy output or download a ZIP containing the minified file
What you can automate
Packly supports automation for repeatable build steps. The Minifier includes a public API surface for JSON minify and ZIP downloads.
Exact endpoint routes, request shapes, and integration notes are intentionally documented in one place: Minifier API Docs.: Exact endpoint routes, request shapes, and integration notes are intentionally documented in one place: Minifier API Docs..
Automation-ready APIs
Packly is built to work well both interactively and in scripts. When a utility supports automation, you can integrate it from CI/CD or internal tooling using a stable HTTP API.
For the Minifier, the authoritative reference for endpoint routes, request models, and error-handling is the API docs page.
Where to start
Start in the UI to find the right settings, then move the same configuration into automation.
How teams use Packly
Packly is designed for both quick, interactive use and repeatable automation. Many teams start in the UI, then move stable transformations into pipelines once the settings are proven.
1) Explore in the browser
Paste an input, tune settings, and preview output instantly. This is ideal for one-off tasks and debugging.
2) Standardize settings
Once a configuration is validated, keep it consistent across projects so output stays predictable.
3) Automate with the public API
Use Packly’s automation endpoints from scripts or CI/CD to keep releases fast and repeatable.
Where Packly fits best
Roadmap: a growing set of utilities
Packly currently includes the Minifier, and its page structure is prepared for additional utilities. The list below illustrates the kinds of small tools Packly can grow into (examples, subject to change).
Potential utilities
- JSON formatter / validator
- HTML formatter / minifier
- URL encode / decode
- Base64 encode / decode
- Hash helpers (e.g., SHA-256)
- Case converters (camelCase, snake_case)
- Regex tester and snippet library
- Text cleanup utilities (trim, normalize whitespace)
What stays consistent as Packly grows
- Responsive UI with copy-first output
- AJAX interactions where page refresh isn’t needed
- Public API endpoints for automation (when applicable)
- Clear docs with examples and limits
- Validation to keep requests safe and predictable
New utilities can add their own SEO sections on dedicated pages and the homepage can feature them as they ship.
