You want the utilities and a real code runner in the same app. You work on Windows or Linux, or want to try it in a browser first. You want your utilities to hand off into runnable code, SQL, or an HTTP request.

Honest comparison

Lingua vs DevUtils

DevUtils is a lovely native macOS utility belt — fast, menu-bar-close, offline. Lingua includes 31 of the same tools (JSON, JWT, hash, Base64, regex, cron, color, and the rest), but they sit next to something DevUtils does not have: an actual code runner for five languages, a SQL workspace, and an HTTP client. If you never need to run code and you live on a Mac, DevUtils is great. If you do, one window can cover both.
