About Priya

Priya works on Coda One's developer tools (JSON, regex, hashing, encoding, timestamps) and the image and video toolchain. She came to content work from full-stack development, which is why her tutorials always include the command-line version alongside the browser tool. She is the reason Coda One's regex tester has a cheatsheet for lookbehind assertions and why the image compression tool exposes JPEG quality sliders instead of hiding them behind a 'level' dropdown. She writes about the dev tools, image tools, video tools, OCR, QR codes, password generation, and anything that touches file formats.
