Text Tools
Small tools for working with text. Each one runs entirely in your browser: what you paste is not sent anywhere.
- HTML Escape / UnescapeUse this when you need to put text inside HTML safely, or read text that is full of & and < references.
- JSON String Escape / UnescapeUse this when you need to paste text into a JSON string, or read a JSON string full of backslashes.
- Word CounterUse this when you want the length of a piece of writing and roughly how long it takes to read.
Which one?
Use the HTML tool for text that goes into a web page, and the JSON tool for text that goes into a JSON string. The word counter measures any text. The methodology page explains how pages on this site are checked.
