FAQ

Common questions about Toolora, privacy, and our most-used tools.

General

Toolora is a free collection of browser-based utilities for developers, students, and everyday work — including text tools, JSON/YAML helpers, encoding utilities, color conversion, and password tools.

No. Toolora v1 tools work without signup. Open a tool, paste your input, and run it in your browser.

Current Toolora utilities are designed to run locally in your browser. Your input stays on your device for these client-side tools.

Yes. The published tools on Toolora are free to use.

Toolora works in modern browsers such as Chrome, Edge, Firefox, and Safari. For the best experience, keep your browser updated.

JSON Formatter

Open tool

It pretty-prints JSON with indentation so nested objects and arrays are easier to read and debug.

The tool validates input first. If parsing fails, you will see an error message instead of formatted output.

Yes. Use the JSON Minifier tool on Toolora to remove unnecessary whitespace from valid JSON.

JSON Validator

Open tool

Paste your JSON into the JSON Validator and run it. Toolora reports whether the text is valid and what top-level type it is.

No. Validation only checks the structure. Use JSON Formatter or JSON Minifier if you want to transform the text.

Base64 Encode

Open tool

Base64 converts binary or text data into a safe ASCII string. It is commonly used in data URLs, tokens, and transfer formats.

No. Base64 is encoding, not encryption. Anyone can decode it. Do not use it to hide secrets.

Yes. The Base64 Encode tool uses UTF-8 so characters beyond plain ASCII are handled correctly.

Base64 Decode

Open tool

Paste a Base64 string into the Base64 Decode tool and run it. Toolora converts it back to readable UTF-8 text when the input is valid.

The input may include invalid characters, broken padding, or truncated data. Remove unexpected spaces or repair the string, then try again.

Password Generator

Open tool

It creates a random password in your browser using the length and character sets you select (lowercase, uppercase, numbers, symbols).

No. Passwords are generated locally in your browser and are not saved by Toolora.

For most accounts, 16+ characters with mixed character types is a strong baseline. Longer is generally better.

URL Encode

Open tool

Encode query parameters and values that contain spaces, symbols, or non-ASCII characters so URLs remain valid.

No. URL encoding percent-encodes characters for URLs. Base64 is a different encoding used for binary-safe ASCII transport.

Word Count

Open tool

It reports words, lines, paragraphs, and characters so you can quickly measure drafts, essays, or notes.

Yes, the character total includes spaces. Use Character Count if you also need totals without spaces.

YAML ↔ JSON Converter

Open tool

Yes. Paste YAML, choose YAML → JSON, and run the tool. Toolora returns formatted JSON without uploading your file.

Yes. Objects and arrays are preserved when converting valid JSON into YAML.

The tool validates input first and shows an error instead of producing incorrect output.

Markdown → HTML

Open tool

It converts Markdown text into HTML markup you can copy into templates, CMS fields, or static pages.

Common GFM-style features such as headings, emphasis, lists, and links are supported for everyday conversion.

If you publish untrusted Markdown, sanitize HTML in your app or CMS before rendering it to users.

Color Converter

Open tool

HEX (#RGB or #RRGGBB), RGB/RGBA strings, compact RGB triples, and HSL/HSLA strings.

No. Paste any supported color and Toolora returns HEX, RGB, and HSL together.

Lorem Ipsum Generator

Open tool

No. Choose an amount (paragraphs, sentences, or words), leave the notes field blank if you want, and run the tool.

The generator uses a classic word list in a stable order so results are predictable for layouts and screenshots.

CSV ↔ JSON Converter

Open tool

Paste CSV with a header row, choose CSV → JSON, and run the tool. Each data row becomes a JSON object.

Provide a JSON array of objects. Keys become CSV headers and values become cells.
