Hash Generator (MD5, SHA-256, SHA-512)

TL;DR: Generate MD5, SHA-1, SHA-256, and SHA-512 hashes from text input. Uses Web Crypto API for secure hashing, entirely in your browser.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a hash function?
A hash function converts input data of any size into a fixed-size string of characters. The same input always produces the same output, but the output cannot be reversed to find the input.
Which hash algorithm should I use?
For security purposes, use SHA-256 or SHA-512. Avoid MD5 and SHA-1 for security-critical applications as they are vulnerable to collision attacks.
Can I hash files?
Yes, you can hash both text input and files. File hashing is done entirely in your browser using the Web Crypto API.
