[TOOL] Jimmy Tools — Giving Triff Tools a Second Life
o7, capsuleers!
I’d like to introduce Jimmy Tools — an EVE Online project based on the original Triff Tools.
Website: https://jtools.lol/
A little history
Some of you may remember Triff Tools, a useful collection of tools for EVE Online players.
The original source code was made publicly available by NarcisussX on GitHub:
First of all, I’d like to say a big thank you to NarcisussX for making the source code available to the community. Without that contribution, bringing this project back would have been much more difficult.
Unfortunately, the project eventually stopped receiving updates and development seemed to come to a halt.
I’ve decided to pick it up, get it running again and try to continue its development under the name Jimmy Tools.
I’m not claiming to have created the original project. I simply want to give it a second life and hopefully make it even more useful for the EVE Online community.
What’s available?
Jimmy Tools brings together various tools and resources:
-
Market Tools — market data and item appraisals.
-
Ship Fitting — tools for working with ship fittings.
-
Industry — industry planning and calculations.
-
Wormhole Tools — wormhole-related resources.
-
Reprocessing — reprocessing calculations.
-
Reactions — reaction planning and calculations.
-
Calculators & Guides — additional tools and reference information.
A little about me and the project
I want to be honest: I’m not particularly skilled at programming. I’m doing this mostly out of enthusiasm and a genuine love for the game.
I used Triff Tools myself and found it very useful. When the original project stopped being maintained, I thought it would be a shame to lose such a helpful resource. That’s why I decided to try bringing it back and continuing its development.
I’m learning along the way, doing my best and trying to improve things step by step.
I’d be very happy if the EVE Online community could share advice, suggestions, bug reports and ideas for new features. Your feedback would really help me understand what needs improvement and what tools would be useful to add.
Most importantly, I hope you’ll enjoy using Jimmy Tools as much as I enjoyed using the original Triff Tools!
What’s next?
My goal is to gradually improve the existing tools, fix bugs, add new features and listen to community feedback.
Feel free to check it out:
Thank you again to NarcisussX for making the original source available, and thanks to everyone who takes the time to check out this project and share their thoughts.
Fly safe, capsuleers! o7
