What's included in Text & String Toolkit

15 tools, all free and client-side — no login or data upload required.

Word Counter

Instantly count words, characters (with and without spaces), sentences, paragraphs, and reading time.

  • Check article word count for SEO targets
  • Meet character limits for social media posts
  • Estimate reading time for blog content

Case Converter

Convert text to UPPERCASE, lowercase, Title Case, camelCase, PascalCase, snake_case, and kebab-case.

  • Convert variable names between coding conventions
  • Normalize user-inputted strings
  • Reformat titles and headings for style guides

Text Reverser

Reverse the entire text character by character, or reverse the order of words while keeping each word intact.

  • Create mirror text for design experiments
  • Reverse word order in lists
  • Generate reversed strings for test cases

Text Diff

Compare two text blocks and see a highlighted diff of all additions, removals, and unchanged lines.

  • Review document revisions side by side
  • Compare config file versions
  • Spot changes in copied content

Find & Replace

Find text or regex patterns and replace them — supports global replace, case-insensitive, and multiline flags.

  • Bulk-replace variable names in pasted code
  • Sanitize user data with regex patterns
  • Reformat dates or phone numbers in text

Line Sorter

Sort lines alphabetically (A–Z or Z–A), by line length, numerically, or shuffle them randomly.

  • Sort import statements alphabetically
  • Organize lists of names or items
  • Shuffle lines for randomized test data

Duplicate Line Remover

Remove all duplicate lines from any block of text, keeping only the first occurrence of each unique line.

  • Deduplicate email lists or CSV data
  • Clean up log files with repeated entries
  • Remove duplicate CSS rules or imports

Empty Line Remover

Strip all blank and whitespace-only lines from text to produce clean, compact output.

  • Clean up pasted code with extra blank lines
  • Compress log output for analysis
  • Prepare text for further processing

Extra Spaces Remover

Normalize whitespace by trimming leading/trailing spaces and collapsing multiple spaces into one.

  • Clean copy-pasted text from PDFs
  • Normalize form inputs before saving
  • Fix spacing issues in migrated content

HTML Tag Remover

Strip all HTML tags from a document, leaving only the plain text content for analysis or reuse.

  • Extract plain text from HTML emails
  • Clean CMS content for text analysis
  • Remove markup before word counting

Text to Slug

Convert any text to a URL-friendly slug: lowercase, spaces to hyphens, special characters removed.

  • Generate URL slugs for blog posts and articles
  • Create SEO-friendly page paths
  • Normalize filenames for web assets

Lorem Ipsum Generator

Generate placeholder lorem ipsum text by number of paragraphs, sentences, or words.

  • Fill UI mockups and wireframes with realistic text
  • Populate database fixtures for testing
  • Test typography and layout with realistic content density

String Repeat

Repeat a string or pattern N times with a custom separator — useful for test data and mock content.

  • Generate repeated test strings for unit tests
  • Create separator lines or dividers
  • Build pattern-based mock data

Add Line Numbers

Prefix every line with a sequential line number — handy for code snippets and log analysis.

  • Reference specific lines in code reviews
  • Number steps in procedural documentation
  • Index log entries for debugging discussion

Text Truncator

Truncate text to a precise character or word limit, with optional ellipsis suffix.

  • Enforce tweet or meta description character limits
  • Generate preview snippets for card UIs
  • Trim content to fit database column limits

About Text & String Toolkit

The Text & String Toolkit brings together every common text manipulation a developer, writer, or content operator needs into a single fast interface. Count words and characters, convert between UPPERCASE, camelCase, snake_case, and kebab-case, strip HTML tags, remove duplicate lines, or generate URL-friendly slugs — each tool updates as you type, with no server round-trip.

Writers use the Word Counter to hit character limits for meta descriptions, tweets, and app-store listings, while developers rely on the Case Converter to switch variable names between coding conventions and the Text Diff to compare config file versions. The Lorem Ipsum Generator produces placeholder copy by paragraph, sentence, or word count for design mockups and database fixtures.

Every operation runs locally in your browser, which means pasted content — including draft articles, customer data, or source code — never reaches any network endpoint. The tools are safe to use with confidential material, and the entire page works offline once loaded.

How to use Text & String Toolkit

  1. 1

    Pick a text operation

    Select the tab that matches your task: counting, case conversion, diffing, sorting, deduplication, slug generation, or placeholder text.

  2. 2

    Paste your text

    Drop text into the input area. Results for counting, case conversion, and slug generation appear instantly as you type.

  3. 3

    Tune the options

    Most tools expose flags like case sensitivity, whitespace handling, or max length. The output updates live when you change them.

  4. 4

    Copy the result

    Hit copy to send the cleaned text to your clipboard. Nothing is saved between page loads, so close the tab to discard everything.

Frequently asked questions

Does the Word Counter count reading time accurately?
Reading time is estimated at 200 words per minute, the standard average for adult silent reading of non-technical prose. For dense or technical content, actual reading time will be longer.
Which case formats does the Case Converter support?
The converter handles UPPERCASE, lowercase, Title Case, Sentence case, camelCase, PascalCase, snake_case, SCREAMING_SNAKE_CASE, kebab-case, and dot.case. It detects word boundaries intelligently even in inputs that mix separators.
Can I use regex in Find & Replace?
Yes. Toggle the regex flag and enter any standard JavaScript-flavor regular expression, including capture groups referenced in the replacement as $1, $2, and so on. Global and case-insensitive flags are available.
Will the HTML Tag Remover preserve text inside tags?
Yes. It strips all HTML markup (including attributes and self-closing tags) but preserves the visible text content between tags, normalizing consecutive whitespace.
How does the Text to Slug tool handle non-ASCII characters?
It transliterates accented characters to their ASCII equivalents (é → e, ñ → n), removes other non-ASCII characters, lowercases the result, and replaces spaces and punctuation with hyphens — producing a clean URL-safe slug.
Is the Text Diff tool line-based or character-based?
It performs a line-based diff and highlights additions, removals, and unchanged context, similar to a git diff. For prose or long lines, you can still spot word-level changes within each highlighted line.
