Why use this html entity encoder?

Typical uses: • Publishing code snippets that must not render as HTML • Hardening user content before injecting it into templates • Making accented text survive legacy email clients

Because the conversion is deterministic and local, results are identical every time and nothing leaks to third parties.

Both directions live on one page, so you never have to bookmark two tools for one job.
