How Hash Generator works
Hash Generator runs entirely in your browser. MD5, SHA-1, SHA-256, SHA-512 for text and files. Under the hood it uses crypto-js (hash functions not offered by Web Crypto (e.g. MD5)) and Web Crypto API (the browser’s built-in, hardware-accelerated cryptography). Your files are read into this tab’s memory, processed on your own CPU, and handed back to you as a download. Nothing is sent to a server.

Tips
- Use SHA-256 to verify downloads; MD5 and SHA-1 are not collision-resistant.
