Formatters, encoders, decoders and checkers for everyday development work, all running in your browser.

Paste tokens, logs or data without worrying: these tools process everything on your device, and nothing you type is uploaded.

Each tool explains the standard it follows, such as RFC 4648 for Base64 or RFC 7519 for JWTs, and its known limits.

All tools 20

JSON, CSV, Base64, URL, JWT, hashes, UUIDs, regex, cron, colours, networking and permissions.
