WELCOME TO MOBZYSTEMS, HOME OF TOOLS!

Here, you'll find a selection of free developer tools, articles about software
development issues, and open source code you can use any way you please. All
tools are open source, hosted on GitHub (with the only exception of
QuickCode.NET).


TOOLS

Visit the tools section for a list of open source tools and utilities that make
up the indispensible MOBZuite™ suite of developers tools. Each of these tools is
lightweight, easy to use, and *FREE*. All source code is available on GitHub.


SEE THROUGH WINDOWS



[Our bombshell - 20,000 downloads and counting!] Press a hotkey to make the
current window transparent, allowing you to see through it!


DEPGRAPH



Show an interactive dependency graph from a .NET solution file.


MOBZEC SECURITY EXPLORER



Analyze a folder structure to determine where security has explicitly been set.


MOBZYNC



Inspect the differences in the contents of two folders at a glance, and
optionally synchronize in one or both directions.


MOBZIZE



A sleeker and faster way to hunt down those large files and folders.


MOBZHUNT



Hard disks never seem big enough. Even that huge new disk fills up in no-time.
You need some space - but where do you start? With MOBZHunt, hunting down disk
hogs is a snap!


FRAGMENT RUNNER



Simple but surprisingly powerful tool to quickly try out .NET fragments in C#,
VB.NET and JScript. Includes a library to compile and run .NET code fragments in
your own applications.


MOBZPING



Displays the availability and response time of a series of hosts graphically.
Very useful for tracking down connection problems, or simply monitoring a number
of hosts simultaneously.


MOBZRULER



Very simple but surprisingly useful tool that displays a grid on screen. Great
for lining up screen elements, measuring screen distances etc.


MOBZOOM



A simple yet powerful zoom tool that supports saving captured images in a host
of formats, including Windows icon files.


REGFIND



Employ the full power of the .NET framework's regular expression engine to
search for patterns in text files and directories.


REGNAME



A small yet flexible regular expression based file rename tool. Supports both a
graphical and a command-line interface.


SHELL RUNNER



A command shell tool for testing and running batch files, with a host of other
options: timestamping output, saving error and output log files, marking error
output in red, etc.


RUNNET



Use .NET languages for scripting! Run .NET code (C#, VB.NET or whatever is
installed on your machine) as a console application wihout generating an
executable file on disk.


MOBZHASH



MOBZHash is a command line tool to display MD5 and SHA hashes for files. It can
also report files with identical hashes, which is useful in tracking down likely
duplicates.


MOBZCRIPT



A simple editor for cmd scripts. Press F5 to save and run your script using the
regular cmd interpreter.


QUICKCODE.NET 2010



[DISCONTINUED] The premier productivity boosting add-in for Visual Studio 2005
through 2013. A complete rewrite of QuickCode.NET 2005, QuickCode.NET 2010 is
now freeware. It features an all-new user interface and much-improved ease of
use.


ONLINE

Try our new Online tools - the .NET Format Tester, the Browser Information Tool,
and Explain Regular Expression.

DepGraph

New tool: DepGraph, an interactive display of the dependencies in your Visual
Studio solution file. Written in React with Typescript using Tauri, which in
turn is Rust!

Buy us a cup of coffee

After more than 15 years, I finally thought of asking visitors for a cup of
coffee. From now on, you'll see a link beneath each tool to donate to MOBZystems

Building a 3D box in CSS

I tried to build a 3D box using just CSS, with CSS custom properties. And it
worked ;-)

MOBZHunt has a successor

In the wake of MOBZec, there is now a successor to MOBZHunt called MOBZize. It's
sleeker, faster, 64-bit, no dependencies. And it checks for updates!

(November 8, 2022)
New tool: MOBZec

A new tool was added on October 25th, 2022: MOBZec Security Explorer. It's a
classic explorer-like app that shows you where explicit security rules (as
opposed to inherited rules) have been defined.
