How To Use

The top pane is always the plain text. The bottom pane is the escaped representation for the selected mode.

Use the JavaScript and JSON modes when you are preparing values for source code or payload literals. Use the regex mode when you need user-provided text to behave as a literal pattern instead of regex syntax.

You can edit either pane. When editing escaped output, the tool attempts to decode it back into plain text and shows an error if the current escaped value is invalid for the selected mode.
