Hash Generator
Compute MD5, SHA-1, SHA-256, and SHA-512 from text or files — locally in your browser.

Digest (SHA-256)
—
MD5 and SHA-1 are legacy; prefer SHA-256+ for security. Here they are useful for checksums and compatibility.
How It Works
Step 1
Enter text or pick a file
Paste any string or hash an entire file from disk.
Step 2
Choose algorithm
Select MD5, SHA-1, SHA-256, or SHA-512, then run the hash.
Step 3
Copy digest
Copy the hex digest for checksums, APIs, or verification.
Frequently Asked Questions
These are fast general-purpose hashes. For storing passwords use dedicated slow algorithms (Argon2, bcrypt, scrypt) on a server — not MD5/SHA alone.
