Alam
Creator and maintainer of BankPDF
I’m Alam, and I build BankPDF, a free, open-source PDF toolkit with 100+ tools that run entirely in your browser.
There’s no uploading your files to a server, no account to create, and no tracking. Your documents stay on your device. The source code is public, so you can see how it works yourself. BankPDF is AGPL-licensed and self-hostable.
I write every post on this blog myself. I’ll write about PDFs, how they work, things I learn while building BankPDF, and occasionally things that go wrong.
When I compare BankPDF with another PDF tool, I’ll link to its documentation so you can check what I’m saying. If there’s something BankPDF doesn’t do well, I’ll say that too.
And if I get something wrong, please open an issue. I’ll fix it and add a note to the post.
