Valpas VS CSS Box-Shadow Code Generator

• Countdown in the menu bar
  15 minutes, 30, one hour, two, four or forever, with the time left always visible. Hold Option to pick an end time instead.
• Starts by itself
  On the power adapter, with an external display attached, while the microphone is in use, or while an app you choose is running.
• Watches a command
  Type claude, codex or ollama and the Mac stays awake while any of them runs, then sleeps when the agent exits.
• Stops by itself
  A battery guard ends the session when the charge runs low.
• Command line
  valpas 45m, valpas run claude, valpas hold 20m and valpas status in the Homebrew and disk-image builds.
• Valpas Pro: lid closed
  Shut the lid and the Mac keeps working until the session ends. Sleep returns on its own when the session ends, on battery, on quit or when the Mac runs hot.

• Visual real-time preview
  The generator provides an instant visual preview of the box-shadow effect as you adjust the parameters, allowing users to see exactly how their shadow will look before copying the code.
• Simple and intuitive interface
  The tool has a clean, straightforward interface with sliders and input fields that make it easy for beginners and experienced developers alike to create box-shadow effects without memorizing CSS syntax.
• Free and browser-based
  The tool is completely free to use and runs entirely in the browser with no installation, sign-up, or downloads required, making it instantly accessible to anyone.
• Quick code output
  The generator produces ready-to-use CSS box-shadow code that can be copied and pasted directly into a stylesheet, saving development time and reducing syntax errors.
• Adjustable parameters
  Users can easily tweak key shadow properties such as horizontal offset, vertical offset, blur radius, spread radius, and color to fine-tune the exact shadow effect they need.

Possible disadvantages

• Limited to single shadow
  The tool appears to only support generating a single box-shadow value at a time, whereas CSS allows multiple comma-separated shadows for more complex effects.
• Minimal styling options
  The generator focuses solely on box-shadow and doesn't include related CSS properties like border-radius or background color adjustments that could help users visualize the shadow in a more realistic context.
• No preset examples
  The tool lacks a library of pre-built shadow presets or templates that users could use as starting points, which would speed up the design process for common shadow styles.
• Basic UI design
  The interface is quite minimal and could benefit from a more polished, modern design with better visual hierarchy and additional guidance or tooltips for less experienced users.
• No export or save functionality
  There is no built-in way to save, bookmark, or export multiple shadow configurations for later comparison or use, so users must manually copy and store their generated values elsewhere.
