Escape / Unescape Text
Escape and unescape common developer text formats locally, with copy and download actions for clean handoff.
Input
Paste text to escape or unescape
Output
Escaped or unescaped output
Choose Escape or Unescape to transform the current text.
Supported formats

What this Escape Text does
Use this escape and unescape text tool for HTML, XML, JSON, CSV, and JavaScript string contexts. It helps prepare snippets for safe embedding or decode escaped text for inspection.
When developers use it
- Escape quotes, slashes, newlines, or entities before placing text into code or markup.
- Unescape copied payload fragments from logs, APIs, or templates.
- Convert text safely between common developer string contexts.
Privacy, input, and output
Escaping and unescaping are local string transformations in the browser.
Choose the escaping context, paste text, and run the action. The output panel shows the transformed string with copy and download controls where useful.
Validation rules and limitations
- Escaping is context-specific; choose the output context that matches where the string will be used.
- This tool does not sanitize untrusted HTML for safe rendering.
