Password Generator
Generate strong, random passwords with customizable length, characters, and complexity.
Word Counter
Count words, characters, sentences, and paragraphs in your text with reading time estimate.
HTML Color Picker
Pick colors and get HEX, RGB, HSL, and CMYK color codes for web design and development.
MD5 Generator
Generate MD5 hash values from any text input for checksums and data integrity verification.
Random Number Generator

How to Choose the Right Digital Tool
For account security, the Password Generator creates cryptographically strong passwords with entropy analysis and crack-time estimates. If you are writing or editing content, the Word Counter provides detailed text statistics including reading and speaking time.
Web developers will find the HTML Color Picker essential for converting between color formats and generating CSS-ready color codes. The MD5 Generator is useful for creating checksums to verify file integrity or generate hash values for data processing.
The Random Number Generator works for everything from lottery number selection to statistical sampling, with controls for range, quantity, and whether duplicates are allowed.
Understanding Digital Security and Data Tools
Strong passwords are your first line of defense against unauthorized access. Security experts recommend using passwords of at least 16 characters with a mix of uppercase, lowercase, numbers, and symbols. A 16-character random password has over 80 bits of entropy, making it virtually uncrackable with current technology.
Color representation in digital systems uses different models for different purposes. HEX codes (like #FF5733) are the most common in web development. RGB defines colors by red, green, and blue light intensity. HSL (Hue, Saturation, Lightness) is more intuitive for designers. CMYK is used for print production.
MD5 (Message-Digest Algorithm 5) produces a 128-bit hash value typically rendered as a 32-character hexadecimal string. While MD5 is no longer recommended for cryptographic security due to collision vulnerabilities, it remains widely used for checksums and non-security data verification.
Cryptographically secure random number generation, as used in our tools, relies on the Web Crypto API rather than the less secure Math.random() function, ensuring truly unpredictable output suitable for security-sensitive applications.
Frequently Asked Questions
What makes a password strong?
A strong password combines length (16+ characters), complexity (uppercase, lowercase, numbers, symbols), and randomness. Avoid dictionary words, personal information, and common patterns. Our generator uses the Web Crypto API for cryptographically secure randomness.
How accurate is the word count reading time estimate?
Our reading time estimate uses the average adult reading speed of 238 words per minute, based on research by Marc Brysbaert. Speaking time uses 150 words per minute, the average pace for presentations. Both are approximations that vary by individual and content complexity.
What is the difference between HEX, RGB, and HSL colors?
HEX uses a six-character code (#RRGGBB) representing red, green, and blue in hexadecimal. RGB uses decimal values 0-255 for each channel. HSL uses Hue (0-360 degrees), Saturation (0-100%), and Lightness (0-100%), which is more intuitive for adjusting colors.
Is MD5 still safe to use?
MD5 is NOT recommended for security-critical applications like password hashing or digital signatures due to known collision vulnerabilities. However, it remains useful for non-security checksums, cache keys, and data deduplication where collision resistance is not critical.
Are the random numbers truly random?
Our generator uses the Web Crypto API (crypto.getRandomValues), which provides cryptographically secure pseudorandom numbers. These are suitable for security applications and are significantly more random than Math.random(), which should never be used for security-sensitive purposes.
