The complete history of Scratch Tabs. From minor utility tweaks to major architectural shifts, every change is documented here.
Scratch Tabs is open-source and developed in the open.
Spin the Wheel picks winners from a list of entries with fair, crypto-random weighted spins, celebration confetti, and a winner modal that can spin again or remove the winner and respin. Every spin lands in a history log, entries can be snapshotted and restored, and results export as an image or shareable link. This release also smooths out Canvas drag-and-drop and adds a sidebar Storage panel so you can see which tabs are eating your quota.
Type-aware column filtering for CSV tables with facets and presets, plus RSA encrypt/decrypt, JSON-to-type-definition, template substitution, Unicode normalization, and comment removal operations.
Restored top-level Import/Canvas buttons, JSON search path suggestions, and mermaid diagram rendering with a repositioned copy/open toolbar in Markdown code blocks.
Arrange code, notes, images, links, and videos on a local-first infinite canvas.
Compare rows across two tabs with whole-line or CSV key-column matching, then open or copy the results without changing either source.
A compact, scrollable welcome screen for mobile, plus column selection and spreadsheet-style copy and paste for CSV tables.
A new Archive Inspector tablet for browsing ZIP/JAR/APK/DOCX/EPUB archives offline, plus an Image smart view for viewing and editing images.
A dedicated smart view for XML tabs with a live structure tree, node inspector, diagnostics panel, and XPath workbench - plus five new pipeline operations including xml.xpath, jwt.sign, and docker run-to-compose conversion.
Scratch Tabs is now installable as a Progressive Web App with offline app-shell caching, so the workspace can launch from the desktop or home screen after the first visit.
Right-click any text in a Monaco editor tab to instantly search and apply pipeline operations or saved pipelines without opening the full pipeline editor.
Run SQL against local CSV, TSV, JSON, NDJSON, and Parquet files using DuckDB WASM - no server, no install, no upload. Import files or paste data, write queries in a Monaco editor, inspect schemas, and export results.
Base62, Base64URL, Basic Auth, JSON Merge/Pick, Extract JSON, Text Obfuscate, Luhn validation, and Strip ANSI pipeline operations - plus the Move to Workspace context menu fix and a clearer active workspace indicator in the sidebar
