🐍 P4RS3LT0NGV3 - Universal Text Translator

A powerful web-based text transformation and steganography tool with 159 built-in text transforms spanning encodings, classical and modern ciphers, Unicode styles, formatting, and niche alphabets. Think of it as a universal translator for ALL alphabets and writing systems!

The app is a static site: run npm run build (after npm install), then open dist/index.html in your browser—no local server required. Alternatively, you can run it as a local app over HTTP with npm start or npx serve dist -l 8080 (see Getting Started below). Core transforms, decoder, and steganography work without calling the cloud; features that use OpenRouter need network access and an API key (see below).

✨ Features

🔐 Steganography

• Emoji Steganography: Hide messages within emojis using variation selectors (VS15/VS16 and related options; configurable bit order in Advanced Settings)
• Invisible Text: Encode text using Unicode Tags block (visually invisible)
• Whitespace & zero-width steganography: Available as transforms for research-style payloads (see transform categories)
