FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
How does The Maker's Knife solve the vendor lock-in problem?
The Maker's Knife runs entirely in your browser. Proprietary formats. Export restrictions. API deprecations. When the vendor pivots, your data goes with them. Single HTML files with localStorage. Standard formats. No accounts, no APIs, no dependencies. Your work belongs to you. Resistor color codes, Ohm's law, logic gate simulator, PWM calculator, I²C reference, and a binary clock. Your electronics bench in a file.
Is my data safe with The Maker's Knife?
Yes. The Maker's Knife is a single HTML file. It never connects to any server. Your data stays in your browser's local storage on your device.
What makes The Maker's Knife different from cloud tools?
Cloud tools require internet, charge subscriptions, and store your data externally. The Maker's Knife is a one-time purchase ($39), works offline, and never transmits data.
Is The Maker's Knife really just one file?
Yes. The Maker's Knife is a single HTML file containing 6 tools. Download it, open it in any browser, and start working. No installation, no dependencies, no accounts.
