HTML Entity Encoder/Decoder

HTML uses characters like `<` and `>` for tags. If you want to display those characters as text, you must 'escape' them. This tool swaps the raw character for its safe HTML entity code.

1. Paste your text.
2. Click 'Encode' to turn special chars into entities.
3. Click 'Decode' to reverse it.
