I was working on a project and needed to convert some Markdown to HTML. Searched for it online, found a site, done. Next day I needed HTML back to Markdown. Searched again, different site. Then JSON to CSV. Then something else. Different site every time, half of them slow.
At some point I just thought — why not build one site that handles all of this?
So I did. That's for a while. I kept hearing it was great for content-heavy sites because of how little JavaScript it ships by default. A converter site felt like the perfect use case — mostly static pages with one interactive tool on each.
Since Astro works with React components, it wasn't a big adjustment once I got the basics down. You write your page layout in .astro files and drop in React components where you need interactivity. Clicked pretty quickly.
The result — 100 on Lighthouse across the board. The pages load instantly because there's barely anything to load.

I'm planning to keep adding more conversions — the everyday ones that developers reach for and end up Googling every single time. Maybe we can make something that becomes a tab that just stays open.
Feedback welcome — especially if a conversion you need isn't there yet.
