What it does
HTML entities is one of 55 tools in Hexkit, a desktop developer toolbox that runs entirely on your own machine. Escape or unescape HTML entities (&, <, ", etc.).
Because Hexkit is a native app rather than a web page, anything you paste into the html entities stays local — there are no uploads, no accounts and no telemetry. You can decode tokens and inspect encoded data even with the network turned off, which makes it safe for tokens, keys and production data.
