Developer Tools

Format, validate and encode data for everyday development tasks.

Which developer tool do you need?

If you want to…Use
Read or check JSON from an APIJSON Formatter or JSON Validator
Make JSON as small as possibleJSON Minifier
See what's inside a token or encoded valueBase64 Decoder
Put text safely into a linkURL Encoder
Read a Unix time from a logTimestamp Converter
Create unique IDsUUID Generator

Good to know

  • Encoding is not encryption. Base64 and URL encoding change how data is written, not who can read it. Anyone can decode them.
  • Pasted data stays local. API responses, tokens and config values are processed in your browser and never logged or uploaded.
  • Formatting doesn't change data. Formatting and minifying only change whitespace; keys, values and their order stay the same.
  • Seconds or milliseconds? A 10-digit timestamp is in seconds and a 13-digit one in milliseconds. The converter works out which.
