Hello, Toolbox Notes
Every so often a task comes along that is just annoying enough to repeat — copying numbers between sheets, checking the same pages every morning, renaming a pile of files. At some point it becomes faster to build a small tool than to keep doing it by hand.
Toolbox Notes is where I write those tools down.
What you’ll find here
The topics won’t be limited to one field. If I built something because I needed it, it can end up here. For each tool I’ll try to cover:
- The problem — what was slow, error-prone, or tedious before
- What the tool does — the main features, with screenshots
- How to use it — enough detail that you could try the same approach
- What I learned — the mistakes and surprises along the way
Up next
The first tool I’ll write about is a helper program for managing an Amazon seller account — the day-to-day checks and number-crunching that eat up time when you sell on Amazon.
