Pro tips

- Enable Brotli (or gzip) compression for HTML/JS/CSS to shrink transfer sizes.
- Set an explicit Cache-Control policy — never rely on browser defaults.
Watch out
Common mistakes to avoid
- Skipping validation before copying the output.
- Not double-checking the input for hidden characters (leading spaces, invisible unicode).
- Sharing sensitive data through URLs — use the copy button instead.
