Utilizing SlothTools you can quickly modify and alternate text and JSON inputs to get the desired results with code. If you're feeling lazy you can even use a prebuilt template. SlothTools is a powerful tool enabled by Javascript, LoDash, and Lazy Extras.

Thats a great idea and execution so far! However, for me as a programmer, it's not much of a go to product. I'm doing this stuff better locally on my machine with the tools I already use anyways. But I see great potential for non coders clicking together a pipeline to transform their input data with a breeze. 👏
@peetzweg Thank you for the feedback! I used to do everything locally as well but I got tired of constantly managing script files to clean up data.
This is really cool, i spend too much time with data manipulation too, so I'm excited to try this out!! Congrats on the launch!
@britt_joiner thank you! Let me know if you would like any features added. We are thinking of adding a Pro version for a very reasonable price.
I am excited to announce the launch of SlothTools, a utility pipeline for JSON and Text. Working on so many projects, I am constantly doing data manipulation. I was annoyed by constantly having to create a Python or NodeJS scripts, import a file, and run a script against the data. There are plenty of tools out that are formed based, but they are too ridge, I wanted something that a programmer could benefit from. This is the solution I settled on. It was a quick couple-day project and just a prototype, but in the end, it proved very useful and I hope you find it useful as well.
Let me know if you have any issues or suggestions for the project.
While I am still struggling with removing special characters from text... you hv made a pro tool 🙂👍👌🔥 Congratulations on the launch. Another idea would be to use text cleansing templates through API.
@naveed_rehman thank you very much for the feedback. I will add a template for text cleaning to make it easier.
Hello @evan_sellers!
Interesting project!
It may be useful to
1. add a possibility to change the order of windows to
input -> pipeline -> output
for ones (like me) who find it more intuitive
2. add autocomplete functionality to see a list of available functions while typing
Wish you luck with your launch!
@sbondaryev thank you for the feedback! Those are some features I would like to add in the future.
