I’m tired of debugging webhook signature issues by hand

Totally fair — webhook signature debugging is one of those things that’s easy to get wrong and annoyingly hard to inspect.
If you want, I can help you make it much less painful by:
- Building a signature verifier for your provider (Stripe, GitHub, Slack, Shopify, etc.)
- Writing a tiny debug tool that prints:
- the exact raw payload bytes received
- the headers used for verification
- the computed signature
- the reason verification failed
- Showing you the common failure points:
- body parsed before verification
- newline / whitespace changes
- wrong secret
- timestamp tolerance issues
- encoding mismatches
- Creating a reusable middleware / helper in your language of choice
If you tell me:
- which webhook provider,
- your language/framework,
- and what error you’re seeing,
I can help you set up a much faster debugging workflow.
