About this tool

Convert a whole number between binary, octal, decimal and hexadecimal without anything leaving your machine. Type into any one of the four fields and the others update instantly. Invalid digits for a base are flagged rather than silently corrupting the result, and arbitrary-size numbers are handled with BigInt, so a 64-bit mask or a long hex value converts exactly. Click any field to copy it. The Advanced options add a text ↔ binary mode that turns words into space-separated 8-bit bytes (UTF-8) and back.

What people use it for

  • Read a hex colour, mask or address in decimal
  • Turn a permission/flag value into binary bits
  • Convert decimal to hex for code or config
  • Encode text as binary bytes (and decode it back)
