Hey dev community! 👋
I built LinkedForge — a collection of 40+ free tools for LinkedIn. No signup, no paywall, no data collection.
What It Does
- CV Generator (10+ templates, PDF export)
- Post Builder (engagement hooks, timing suggestions)
- Headline, Banner, Cover Letter makers
- Job Application Tracker
- Profile Analyzer, Skills Optimizer
- Content Calendar, Hashtag Generator
- Salary Research, Interview Prep
- Connection Request Templates
- 25+ more focused tools
The Stack
- Frontend: React + TypeScript, Vite, Tailwind CSS
- Backend: None. Everything runs client-side.
- Hosting: Vercel (free tier → pro when needed)
Why Client-Side Only?
- Faster (no API roundtrips)
- Cheaper (zero backend costs)
- Privacy-first (data never leaves browser)
- Easier to deploy
Quick Stats
- Time to build: ~2 weeks
- Users: Thousands monthly (all organic)
- Cost: Free tier until traffic justified Vercel Pro
- Monetization: None planned
