Template Details

PDF Toolbox is a toolset for managing PDF files. The README states that all processing is done in the browser, so files do not need to be uploaded to a server. It provides four user-facing features: merging multiple PDFs, converting JPG/PNG images to PDF, extracting text content from PDFs, and compressing PDFs to reduce file size. In addition to the web interface, the project offers a developer API with four POST endpoints: /api/merge, /api/convert, /api/extract, and /api/compress; the README provides a link to online documentation. For the tech stack, the README lists Next.js 15 with TypeScript, TailwindCSS and shadcn/ui, pdf-lib for PDF processing, and Biome for linting and formatting, with Vercel as the deployment platform. The Getting Started section of the README only gives commands to clone the repository and enter the directory; it does not describe installing dependencies, environment variables, or starting the development server, so the local run procedure is incomplete in the available material. The README also does not explain the specific compression implementation, the API's authentication and rate-limiting policies, browser compatibility scope, or testing status.

How this score is calculated

Our heuristic uses license records (up to 30), a demo link (12), a preview (10), stars (15), recorded maintenance (15), description completeness (8), feature records (5) and classification data (5). It is not a code, security or performance test, or a Google score. A link does not establish tested functionality.

A demo link is listed. Check it with your own content and viewport sizes; its presence does not confirm that forms, authentication or payments work.

The catalog identifies Next.js as the primary stack. Check the actual dependency manifest and lockfile for versions and hosting requirements. These notes use recorded metadata, not a code audit or a deployment test.
