About Tigerkid

Who is Tigerkid?

Hello! I'm Tigerkid, the creator and developer behind TigerkidTools. I'm passionate about researching and exploring topics that help people live better, more fulfilling lives. My journey led me to dive deep into several key areas that I believe are fundamental to human wellbeing.

My Areas of Focus

Personal Finance & Financial Independence

Financial health is the foundation of life freedom. I've spent countless hours studying personal finance strategies, from the FIRE movement (Financial Independence, Retire Early) to debt management techniques like the debt snowball method. This research directly inspired tools like our Coast FIRE Calculator and Debt Snowball Calculator.

Physical Health & Wellness

Your body is your most important asset. I'm fascinated by evidence-based approaches to health optimization, including intermittent fasting, nutrition science, and sustainable lifestyle changes. The Fasting Calculator was born from my deep dive into the science of fasting and its metabolic benefits.

Mental Health & Life Optimization

Mental wellbeing is just as crucial as physical and financial health. I study psychology, productivity systems, and evidence-based approaches to happiness and life satisfaction. While not yet reflected in tools, this research informs the holistic approach behind everything I create.

Why I Build These Tools

My philosophy is simple: knowledge should be accessible, and good tools should be free. Throughout my research, I often found myself needing calculators and tools that either didn't exist, were behind paywalls, or were unnecessarily complicated.

So I decided to build them myself—not just for my own use, but to share with anyone who might benefit. Every tool on TigerkidTools is:

• Completely free - No subscriptions, no hidden fees
• Built with care - Based on scientific formulas and best practices
• User-focused - Simple interfaces that anyone can use
• Mobile-friendly - Works perfectly on any device

The Technical Side

As a developer, I believe in building tools that are not only functional but also fast, accessible, and reliable. TigerkidTools is built with modern web technologies:

• Next.js & React for a fast, interactive experience
• TypeScript for reliable, bug-free calculations
• Tailwind CSS for a clean, responsive design
• Static generation for lightning-fast loading

I also write blog articles that dive deep into the algorithms and science behind each tool, because I believe in transparency and education.

My Mission

My goal is to democratize access to the tools and knowledge that can genuinely improve people's lives. Whether you're planning for financial independence, optimizing your health, or just trying to make better decisions, I want to provide you with the resources you need—completely free.

If you find these tools helpful, that's all the reward I need. And if you have ideas for new tools or improvements, I'd love to hear from you.
