Is there a DevKnife for Linux?
No. DevKnife is built for macOS and requires an Apple silicon Mac running macOS 14 or later. There is no Linux or Windows edition.
DevT Pro installs from Flathub or the Snap Store on x86_64 Linux, so it works on any distribution with Flatpak or Snap support and updates through your software center.
Breadth versus depth
DevKnife has roughly 30-plus tools, several of which are full applications in their own right. DevT Pro has more than 120, focused on the transformations developers do every day.
That means the comparison is less about counts and more about which kind of work you do most.
Networking tools on Linux
DevKnife includes an HTTP client, DNS lookups, a port scanner and certificate inspection. DevT Pro does not try to duplicate those.
On Linux, most developers already reach for curl, dig, nc and openssl for that work, and DevT Pro complements them: paste a cURL command into cURL to code to get Python, Go, Rust and eight more languages, or drop an API response into a JSON viewer or converter.
Where DevT Pro is broader
DevT Pro includes 46 converters across JSON, XML, YAML, CSV, TSV, TOML and TOON, and 19 code generators for typed models and HTTP clients. It also covers JWTs, Base64, hashing and encryption, regex, diffing, cron parsing, previews and QR codes.
A keyboard-first Linux workspace
Tools open in tabs you can pin, rename, duplicate and reorder, with several copies of the same tool open at once. Ctrl+P finds any tool, and the window title bar follows your light or dark theme.
A command-line tool and MCP server for AI agents are coming in v9, designed to ship inside the Flatpak and Snap packages.
Privacy
DevT Pro has no account, telemetry or analytics and makes no background network connections. On Linux it only goes online to activate your license or when you ask it to load a URL.
Pricing
DevKnife offers a 30-day trial and a one-time purchase on macOS.
On Linux, DevT Pro is unlocked with a one-time $5.99 license key that includes all 120+ tools. You activate it once in the app; the license is then remembered, so DevT Pro keeps working offline. Moving to a new computer is a matter of deactivating the key in Settings → License and activating it again.
