Early Access to Tool Library : The Tool Nerd
Check out the latest the tools focussed on enhancing the productivity , so that you can do better work faster and save time.
I am excited to share with you all the first version of my Tool Library. As I have been writing about Tools & Productivity, I had friends & family reaching out to me asking me if there’s an AI for this and for that.
That’s when I thought why not have a library / directory with the top and useful productivity tools at one place and give my friends and family an easier way to discover the latest tools.
These are also the tools that I have already covered or will be covering as a part of my blogs on the Tool Nerd.

What’s unique about it?
The platform not only offers the list of AI tools but it also tries to address things like Use Cases, Features, Pricing, Training Material whereever possible, so that you can easily understand the need for the Tool and start using it right away by learning about it from the Youtube videos.
Below is an example : Aider - an tool that helps you write the code.
Videos to learn about the tool and how to use it.
How I built this?
I am a no coder and I had built this platform with Coding leveraging only with AI with the help of Cursor, V0 and Replit. I have integrated with tools like Jina.ai ( For scraping the information and homepage screenshot) & apis from Rapidapi for specific need.
Better Product Documentations, better prompts and requirements is what is needed to get a product developed.
I have semi automated the complete work flow to get the right information. Based on the url of the website, I try to get most of the information and summarise it in a fashion that’s understandable to the users.
I have built my backend on Python and the frontend on NextJS

You can read more about Cursor, Replit and V0 in my previous articles here
It’s been a great learning experience for me personally, as I had tried building this from scratch with a near production grade deployment. I had made many errors. I had taken support from my friends as well to fix few errors and build it.
This is not perfect and I know it. I need to get few more features
