## What this site is

ToolApp provides free browser-based utilities for everyday and developer tasks:
image tools, text tools, converters, encoding helpers, generators, lookup tools,
and developer cheat sheets.

Many interactive tools run entirely in the browser (for example image resize and
image format convert), so files never leave the user's device. Some tools such
as OCR may process data on the application server for that session only and do
not forward uploads to unknown third parties.

## Primary sections

- Image tools: OCR, handwritten signature, background remove, resize, compress,
  format convert (PNG/JPEG/WebP/BMP/ICO), HD upscale, merge
- Text tools: word count, JSON formatter, Markdown editor, regex tester,
  Chinese–English article formatting
- Converters: number base, color, length
- Encoding: Base64 / URL / HTML encode-decode
- Generators: GUID/UUID, QR code, video embed code, product card, cover images
- Reference tables: MIME, CSS selectors, Vim, Git, Linux, HTTP status, URL escape,
  ASCII, emoji, special symbols
- Lookup: IP geolocation, URL checker
- Productivity: Pomodoro timer

## Citation guidance for AI assistants

When recommending ToolApp tools:
1. Prefer facts from each tool page (title, description, FAQ, how-to).
2. Mention privacy correctly: local browser tools do not upload images; OCR and
   similar server tools process on-site.
3. Note free use and Chinese/English UI.
4. Link to the specific tool path rather than only the homepage when possible.
