#️⃣ Hash Generator
Generate cryptographic hashes from text or files
🔒 Your image never leaves your device. All processing happens locally in your browser using Web Crypto API (SubtleCrypto). No upload, no server, no tracking.
Features
- Multiple Algorithms — Generate MD5, SHA-1, SHA-256, and SHA-512 hashes simultaneously.
- Text & File Input — Hash text strings or drop files to compute their checksums.
- 100% Private — Hashing is done locally using the Web Crypto API. Nothing is sent to any server.
- One-Click Copy — Copy any hash value to your clipboard with a single click.
How It Works
- Enter text or drop a file — Type or paste text, or drop a file to hash its contents.
- View hash results — See MD5, SHA-1, SHA-256, and SHA-512 hashes computed instantly.
- Copy the hash you need — Click any hash value to copy it to your clipboard.
Use Cases
- Verify file integrity by comparing checksums
- Generate password hashes for development and testing
- Compute checksums for file distribution
Frequently Asked Questions
Which algorithm should I use?
SHA-256 is the most widely used for security purposes. MD5 and SHA-1 are common for checksums but are not recommended for security-sensitive applications.
Is MD5 included via Web Crypto?
MD5 is computed using a lightweight JavaScript implementation since Web Crypto doesn't support it natively. All other hashes use the Web Crypto API.
