Hello Product Hunt community! Our new Slack App, Everyday Toolkit, was born from our company's internal hackathon earlier this year. As enthusiastic Slack users, we found ourselves often switching out of Slack for basic everyday tasks which we felt should be feasible natively in Slack. Want to check the meaning of a word in the chat? Can't remember what time it is for your colleague across the world? Need to share a Google image with the channel? Want to convert a currency or metric? All these basic tasks require you to switch away from Slack, complete the task, then switch back. So we built a bundle of 12 micro-apps to let you switch less and do more in Slack. According to research from Slack, most of us waste over 30 minutes every day switching between apps. We built Everyday Toolkit to help bring that number down. We were overwhelmed with the success of the concept as colleagues throughout our company started using it, regardless of their role or department. So we decided to polish it up, and offer it as a product to the wider community. Everyday Toolkit was born. We're planning to add many more apps and we'd love to hear your thoughts.

Looks awesome! Which APIs do you use for things like dictionary / thesaurus / FX rates? Love the giphy foward/backwards - I definitely spend too much time finding the perfect gif!

@ebellyeah Thanks for the feedback Etienne, we know what you mean about the gifs! We use class-leading APIs from reputable sources in each field, so for example the dictionary and thesaurus data is coming from Merriam-Webster and the FX rates are from the European Central Bank.
