About
DevKill is a Windows utility that discovers processes listening on ports via native Windows APIs and lets you kill them. It auto-discovers zombie dev servers (Node, .NET, Python, PHP, Vite, and others), shows them in a modern dark Fluent UI, and lets you kill them individually or in bulk. Includes CLI mode (devkill 3000), system tray integration, and auto-refresh.

Security
No known CVEs for DevKill.
Coverage is best-effort and depends on a winget package mapping to an NVD CPE entry. Absence here is not a guarantee of safety.
