How does it work?
With TxtFiddle, you use JavaScript to transform text from one form into another. The workflow is simple.
Paste the text you want to process into the “Input” editor.
Write a bit of JavaScript code (or use one of the included templates) that works on the input text and returns the result.
Click “Run Code” and grab the resulting text from the “Output” panel.
What can I do with TxtFiddle?
If you work in IT, you are probably all too familiar with little data wrangling tasks like …
- … removing duplicate lines from a text,
- … extracting data from CSV files,
- … converting a list of dates into a different format,
- … validating and formatting JSON code,
- … generating SQL INSERT statements from input text,
- … escaping special characters in a bunch of strings, or
- … cleaning up a set of URLs.
With TxtFiddle, you can quickly write scripts that process your input into a suitable form right inside your browser, using the JavaScript programming language.
Because we all love JavaScript, right? 😀
What makes TxtFiddle so great?
No installation required
TxtFiddle works in any modern browser, no matter the platform. It loads instantly and aims to be as simple and intuitive to use as possible.
Shareable fiddles
Each project gets its own unique URL which you can bookmark in your browser or share with others, so they can use your code and profit from it as well.
Powerful code editor
TxtFiddle is based on Monaco, the code editor that powers Visual Studio Code, bringing you all the features you would expect from a modern editor: syntax and error highlighting, automatic code completion, and much more.
Cloud storage
Your projects are stored in the cloud, so you can come back to work on them from any device at any time.
Built-in templates
We provide a bunch of example projects that you can easily use as starting points for your fiddles.
It’s free
TxtFiddle is a side project that isn’t meant to make us rich. It’s a tool we wanted for ourselves, and we had fun developing it. We might add some paid features later, but the core will always be free.
