What's New in Kitly!
This update introduces a brand new Configuration Converter tool to Kitly to simplify application configuration translations, alongside major reliability upgrades to the JWT Toolkit.
New: Configuration Converter Tool
The Configuration Converter is a dedicated side-by-side utility built for developers who need to translate configuration formats quickly and accurately. Here's what it brings:
- Full 3-Way Conversions
Convert between JSON (appsettings), XML (web.config), and YAML in any direction. All 6 conversion pathways are supported natively. - Intelligent XML Flattening & Preservation
When converting XML configurations (like web.config), key-value settings in<appSettings>and connection string properties under<connectionStrings>are automatically flattened into clean key-value structures. All other legacy and IIS-level configuration nodes (such as<system.web>,<system.webServer>, rewrite rules, and attributes) are preserved recursively, ensuring no settings are lost. - Dual-Theme Code Editors
Equipped with dual side-by-side CodeMirror code panels supporting line numbers, syntax highlighting, and formatting. Toggle between light and dark themes to match your workspace aesthetics. - Upload, Copy, and Download
Upload your configuration files directly into the editor, copy results to your clipboard with a single click, or download the converted files with the correct extension (.json, .xml, .yaml).
Improved: JWT Toolkit Robustness
We've resolved several issues with the JWT Toolkit parser to ensure a smoother, error-free debugging experience:
- Auto-Strip Headers: The parser now automatically strips the "Bearer " prefix if copy-pasted with your token.
- Whitespace & Formatting Handling: Trailing/leading spacing, newlines, and carriage returns are cleaned up automatically so base64url decoding never fails.
- Error Validation: If a pasted token is invalid, the tool now outputs clear, inline error messages explaining what went wrong instead of failing silently.
