AES-256-GCM encrypt/decrypt using a raw key or passphrase (PBKDF2). All crypto runs locally on your device — encrypt a string with a passphrase, a Web Crypto demo.
About Encryption Playground
AES-GCM encrypt and decrypt locally with a raw key (hex or Base64) or a passphrase (PBKDF2-SHA256 + AES-GCM). Outputs a small JSON bundle you can copy and decrypt locally—educational and occasionally practical. Nothing is uploaded. Part of MyDevTools — an all-in-one desktop toolkit that runs offline and processes your data locally on your machine.
Common Encryption Playground use cases
Use Encryption Playground when you need a fast, dedicated way to work with aes gcm. It is useful during API debugging, code reviews, documentation cleanup, test data preparation, and quick checks. Because MyDevTools keeps related utilities together in one offline desktop app, you can move from Encryption Playground into nearby tools like formatters, converters, generators, encoders, decoders, and API helpers without leaving the same toolkit.
Example workflow
A typical workflow starts by pasting or typing your input into Encryption Playground. Review the result, copy the cleaned or generated output, then continue with a related task such as validating a payload, decoding a token, parsing a URL, generating an identifier, or testing an API request. This makes Encryption Playground part of a practical developer workflow instead of a one-off utility page.
