GDorks
Visual Google search operator builder that makes advanced search queries (Google dorks) accessible without memorising syntax.
The problem
Google dorking is powerful but gatekept by syntax: 25+ operators with their own quoting and ordering rules, scattered across cheatsheets. GDorks turns it into a visual builder: toggle operators, see the query update live, reuse presets, and share recipes other users have found.

Toggle operators to compose an advanced search query live, then copy it or run it. A miniature of the real builder.
Toggle operators to build a query…Architecture
- Zustand state machine holds the base query plus a filter array; every change recomputes the generated query through operator-specific formatting (site:, filetype:, intitle: quoting, and so on)
- 16 operator definitions across six categories (basic, site, advanced, file, date, misc), each carrying metadata: type, label, description, placeholder, example, prefix, and a requires-quotes flag
- Query pipeline: base + enabled filters → per-filter formatting (quote phrases, lowercase extensions) → join → URL-encode → open google.com/search
- Quick chips for one-tap common operators plus an advanced dropdown listing every operator with descriptions
- Supabase backs the community layer: a shared preset gallery with votes, comments, and user profiles. The free builder still works fully offline with localStorage and anonymous sessions
- A Pro tier unlocks a canvas-based query IDE: drag-and-drop filter blocks (@dnd-kit) on a zoom/pan pane that regenerates the query on every edit, with billing and entitlements driven by LemonSqueezy subscription webhooks
Highlights
Real-time query preview with real syntax
Toggle operators and the query updates instantly. It respects Google's real rules: intitle: auto-quotes phrases, site: takes a bare domain, filetype: lowercases the extension.
Free builder, Pro canvas IDE
The free builder covers the operators and presets most people need; a Pro tier adds a drag-and-drop canvas IDE for composing complex multi-layer queries, with subscriptions billed through LemonSqueezy webhooks.
Curated presets + community library
Ten ready-made recipes (Reddit discussions, PDF books, GitHub repos, academic papers…) teach patterns; saved dorks live in a shareable Supabase gallery with votes and comments.
