Convert Text Case Instantly
🔤 What is a Case Converter?
A case converter is a text transformation tool that changes the capitalization and formatting of text between different naming conventions. Instead of manually retyping text to match a specific format, simply paste your text and instantly see it converted to 15+ different case styles.
Why use a case converter? Programming languages, databases, APIs, and style guides each have preferred naming conventions. Python uses snake_case, JavaScript uses camelCase, URLs use kebab-case, SQL uses snake_case, and class names use PascalCase. When moving code between languages, formatting data, or cleaning text, a case converter saves time and ensures consistency.
How it works: The tool intelligently extracts words from your input regardless of current format (spaces, underscores, hyphens, camelCase, etc.), then converts to all supported case types simultaneously. Copy your preferred format with one click.
🚀 Supported Case Formats
Developer Cases:
camelCase - First word lowercase, subsequent words capitalized, no separators. Used in JavaScript, Java, C# for variables and functions. Example:
getUserById,isValidEmail,totalAmountPascalCase - All words capitalized, no separators. Used for class names, React components, TypeScript interfaces. Example:
UserAccount,PaymentProcessor,ApiResponsesnake_case - Words separated by underscores, all lowercase. Python standard (PEP 8), SQL table/column names, Ruby. Example:
user_first_name,created_at,api_keySCREAMING_SNAKE_CASE - Words separated by underscores, all uppercase. Used for constants in most languages. Example:
MAX_RETRIES,API_BASE_URL,DEFAULT_TIMEOUTkebab-case - Words separated by hyphens, all lowercase. Used in URLs, CSS class names, file names, npm packages. Example:
user-profile,btn-primary,feature-branchSCREAMING-KEBAB-CASE - Words separated by hyphens, all uppercase. Rare, used in some HTTP headers. Example:
CONTENT-TYPE,USER-AGENTdot.case - Words separated by dots, lowercase. Used in namespaces, package names, config keys. Example:
com.example.app,user.profile.namePath/Case - Words separated by forward slashes, lowercase. Used in file paths, URL paths, namespaces. Example:
api/v1/users,src/components/user
Text Cases:
UPPERCASE - All letters capitalized. Use for acronyms, emphasis, or legacy database fields. Example:
HELLO WORLDlowercase - All letters small. Use for domains, emails, or normalizing text. Example:
hello worldTitle Case - First letter of major words capitalized. Use for headings, blog titles, book chapters. Example:
Guide to Affiliate MarketingSentence case - First letter of sentence capitalized, rest lowercase. Use for normal text, descriptions. Example:
Hello world
Fun Cases:
aLtErNaTiNg cAsE - Strictly alternates between lowercase and uppercase every character. Example:
hElLo wOrLdInVeRsE CaSe - Swaps existing case (uppercase becomes lowercase, vice versa). Example:
hELLO wORLDsPoNgEbOb cAsE - Random capitalization for mocking/sarcasm (meme culture). Example:
HeLlO WoRlD
⚡ Real-Time Conversion
Type or paste text in the input field and all 15+ conversions appear instantly. No “Convert” button needed—results update as you type for immediate feedback.
Smart word extraction: The tool automatically detects word boundaries from:
- Spaces:
hello world→ words: [hello, world] - Underscores:
user_first_name→ words: [user, first, name] - Hyphens:
api-response-handler→ words: [api, response, handler] - Dots:
com.example.app→ words: [com, example, app] - Slashes:
api/v1/users→ words: [api, v1, users] - camelCase:
getUserById→ words: [get, user, by, id] - PascalCase:
ApiResponseHandler→ words: [api, response, handler] - Mixed formats:
get-user_byID→ words: [get, user, by, id]
One-click copy: Each conversion result has a “Copy” button. Click to copy formatted text to clipboard with visual feedback (button turns green, shows “Copied!”). Paste directly into your code editor, document, or terminal.
Character statistics: View character count, character count without spaces, word count, and line count below input field. Useful for tracking text length for API limits, database fields, or content requirements.

Note: Different style guides (AP, Chicago, MLA, APA) have variations. This tool uses common web/journalism conventions suitable for blog posts and online content.
💡 Tips and Best Practices
1. Choose the Right Case for Context
Match your target platform’s conventions:
- Code: Follow language style guide (PEP 8 for Python, Airbnb for JavaScript)
- URLs: Always kebab-case for SEO and readability
- Databases: snake_case for universal compatibility
- CSS: kebab-case per CSS specification
- APIs: Consistent choice across entire API (typically camelCase or snake_case)
2. Maintain Consistency
Pick one convention per context and stick to it:
- Don’t mix
userNameanduser_emailin same codebase - Use consistent case in API responses (all camelCase or all snake_case)
- Follow team/project style guide religiously
3. Handle Special Cases
Some words/acronyms need special handling:
- IDs:
userId(camelCase),user_id(snake_case),UserID(PascalCase with acronym) - Acronyms:
apiKeyvsAPIKey(language conventions vary) - Numbers:
v2Api(camelCase),v2_api(snake_case),V2Api(PascalCase)
4. Test Round-Trip Conversions
Verify conversions are reversible:
- Convert
user_first_nameto camelCase →userFirstName - Convert
userFirstNameback to snake_case →user_first_name - Result should match original (confirms no data loss)
5. Document Your Choices
When building APIs or libraries, document naming conventions:
- README.md: “All API endpoints use kebab-case”
- API docs: “JSON keys use camelCase”
- Code comments: “Database columns use snake_case”
🔒 Privacy and Performance
Client-Side Processing: All conversions happen entirely in your browser using JavaScript. No text is sent to servers, ensuring complete privacy for sensitive variable names, proprietary code, or confidential data.
No Registration Required: Use the tool immediately without signup, login, or email. No tracking cookies, no analytics, no data collection.
State Persistence: The tool saves your current input to browser localStorage for convenience (restore after page refresh). This is purely local storage—never synced to cloud or external servers. Clear browser data to remove saved state.
Instant Results: Real-time conversion with zero latency. No server round-trips, no network delays. Works offline after initial page load.
Performance: Handles text up to 100,000+ characters without lag. Conversion algorithms are optimized for instant response even with large inputs.
🚨 Common Pitfalls
Pitfall 1: Losing Context in Conversion
Some conversions lose semantic meaning:
XMLHttpRequest→ snake_case →x_m_l_http_request(hard to read)- Better: manually convert to
xml_http_requestfor clarity - Solution: Review complex acronyms before using automated conversion
Pitfall 2: Inconsistent Acronym Handling
Different languages handle acronyms differently:
- C#:
APIKey,HTTPResponse(all caps) - JavaScript:
apiKey,httpResponse(camelCase with lowercase acronym) - Python:
api_key,http_response(snake_case) - Solution: Follow language-specific style guides, not just converter output
Pitfall 3: Case Sensitivity in Systems
Some systems are case-sensitive, others aren’t:
- SQL: Often case-insensitive (
user_name=USER_NAME) - URLs: Case-sensitive (
/User≠/user) - File systems: Linux case-sensitive, Windows/macOS often case-insensitive
- Solution: Use lowercase conventions (snake_case, kebab-case) for cross-platform compatibility
Pitfall 4: Special Characters
The tool removes special characters (apostrophes, ampersands, slashes) during conversion:
user's name→ camelCase →usersName(apostrophe removed)Q&A section→ snake_case →q_a_section(ampersand becomes ‘a’)- Solution: Manually handle special characters if they’re significant to meaning
Pitfall 5: Numbers in Names
Number handling varies:
api2Response→ snake_case →api_2_response(number gets separator)v2api→ PascalCase →V2Api(number stays attached)- Solution: Review number placement in converted names
📚 Quick Reference Table
| Original | camelCase | PascalCase | snake_case | kebab-case | SCREAMING_SNAKE |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| user name | userName | UserName | user_name | user-name | USER_NAME |
| get user by id | getUserById | GetUserById | get_user_by_id | get-user-by-id | GET_USER_BY_ID |
| API Key | apiKey | ApiKey | api_key | api-key | API_KEY |
| total amount | totalAmount | TotalAmount | total_amount | total-amount | TOTAL_AMOUNT |
| is valid | isValid | IsValid | is_valid | is-valid | IS_VALID |
Case Converter Best Practices
1. Follow Language Conventions
Every programming language has established naming conventions documented in official style guides:
Python (PEP 8):
- Functions and variables: snake_case
- Classes and exceptions: PascalCase
- Constants: SCREAMING_SNAKE_CASE
- Modules: snake_case (short, lowercase)
JavaScript (Airbnb Style Guide):
- Variables and functions: camelCase
- Classes and constructors: PascalCase
- Constants: SCREAMING_SNAKE_CASE
- File names: camelCase or kebab-case
Java (Oracle Code Conventions):
- Variables and methods: camelCase
- Classes and interfaces: PascalCase
- Constants: SCREAMING_SNAKE_CASE
- Packages: lowercase (no underscores)
Ruby (Ruby Style Guide):
- Variables and methods: snake_case
- Classes and modules: PascalCase
- Constants: SCREAMING_SNAKE_CASE
Violating conventions makes code harder for team members to read and maintain. Always use the case converter to match target language conventions when refactoring or porting code.
2. Maintain Consistency Across Codebase
Pick one convention per context and apply it uniformly:
Database schema consistency:
All tables and columns use snake_case: user_accounts, first_name, created_at. Mixing userName with user_email creates confusion.
API consistency: Choose camelCase or snake_case for entire API:
- camelCase:
{"userId": 123, "firstName": "John", "createdAt": "2024-01-01"} - snake_case:
{"user_id": 123, "first_name": "John", "created_at": "2024-01-01"}
Never mix both in same API response. Use the case converter to batch-convert all key names when migrating conventions.
CSS class naming:
Stick to kebab-case for all classes: btn-primary, nav-item, user-profile-card. Consistent naming makes styles predictable and searchable.
File naming: Choose one convention for entire project:
- kebab-case:
user-profile.jsx,api-utils.js - camelCase:
userProfile.tsx,apiUtils.ts - snake_case:
user_profile.py,api_utils.rb
3. Use Descriptive Names
Case conversion doesn’t fix unclear names. Start with descriptive words:
Bad: data, info, temp, x
Good: userData, userProfileInfo, temporaryToken, userId
Bad: get(), process(), handle()
Good: getUserById(), processPayment(), handleFormSubmit()
The case converter transforms format, not meaning. Write clear names first, then convert to appropriate case.
4. Handle Acronyms Correctly
Acronyms require special attention based on language conventions:
JavaScript/TypeScript:
apiKey,httpResponse,xmlParser(lowercase acronym in camelCase)ApiKey,HttpResponse,XmlParser(title case acronym in PascalCase)
C# / .NET:
APIKey,HTTPResponse,XMLParser(all caps acronym)
Python:
api_key,http_response,xml_parser(lowercase in snake_case)
When converting, manually review acronyms to match target language style. The case converter treats acronyms as single words, which may need adjustment.
5. Consider Database Portability
Use snake_case for database tables and columns for maximum compatibility:
Why snake_case for databases:
- Works across all SQL databases (MySQL, PostgreSQL, SQLite, SQL Server, Oracle)
- No case sensitivity issues (some DBs case-insensitive, others case-sensitive)
- Matches SQL keywords (SELECT, WHERE, INSERT are uppercase)
- Standard in database migration tools (Alembic, Flyway, Liquibase)
Avoid camelCase in databases:
- May require quoting:
SELECT "firstName" FROM "userAccounts" - Case sensitivity varies by database
- Harder to read in SQL queries
Convert application object properties (camelCase) to database columns (snake_case) in ORM mappings.
6. Optimize for SEO with URL Slugs
Always use kebab-case for URL slugs:
Good URLs:
/blog/best-affiliate-programs-2024/products/blue-running-shoes/category/web-development-tools
Bad URLs:
/blog/Best_Affiliate_Programs_2024(underscores, mixed case)/products/blue%20running%20shoes(spaces encoded)/category/webDevelopmentTools(camelCase)
Why kebab-case for URLs:
- Google treats hyphens as word separators (improves SEO)
- Underscores sometimes treated as word connectors (less ideal for SEO)
- All lowercase avoids case-sensitivity issues
- More readable and shareable
Convert blog post titles or product names to kebab-case slugs using the case converter.
7. Version Your API Naming Conventions
When changing API naming conventions (snake_case → camelCase), version the API:
API v1: {"user_id": 123, "first_name": "John"} (snake_case)
API v2: {"userId": 123, "firstName": "John"} (camelCase)
Don’t break existing clients by changing conventions mid-version. Use the case converter to generate v2 field names, then support both v1 and v2 simultaneously with mapping layer.
8. Document Naming Conventions
Include naming conventions in project documentation:
README.md:
## Naming Conventions
- JavaScript: camelCase for variables/functions, PascalCase for classes
- Database: snake_case for all tables and columns
- URLs: kebab-case for all routes and slugs
- CSS: kebab-case for all class names
- Environment variables: SCREAMING_SNAKE_CASE
API Documentation:
All JSON keys use camelCase (example: firstName, userId, createdAt)
Contributing Guide:
Follow language-specific style guides:
- Python: PEP 8 (snake_case)
- JavaScript: Airbnb (camelCase)
Clear documentation prevents inconsistency and helps new team members.
9. Use Case Converter in Code Review
During code review, check for naming consistency:
- Copy variable names from pull request
- Run through case converter
- Verify matches project conventions
- Request changes if inconsistent
Example: If codebase uses snake_case but PR introduces userName, request change to user_name.
10. Automate with Linters
Configure linters to enforce naming conventions automatically:
ESLint (JavaScript):
{
"rules": {
"camelcase": ["error", {"properties": "always"}]
}
}
Pylint (Python):
[BASIC]
function-naming-style=snake_case
class-naming-style=PascalCase
const-naming-style=UPPER_CASE
Linters catch convention violations before code review. Use case converter to fix violations quickly.
Frequently asked questions
- What is a case converter and why is it useful?
A case converter is a text transformation tool that changes text between different capitalization and formatting styles (camelCase, snake_case, UPPERCASE, etc.). It's essential for developers converting variable names between programming languages (Python uses snake_case, JavaScript uses camelCase), preparing data for databases, cleaning text from spreadsheets, formatting API responses, or converting code conventions. Instead of manually retyping text, a case converter instantly transforms text between formats with one click. This saves time, prevents typos, and ensures consistent naming conventions across projects. Common use cases: refactoring code, data cleaning, SQL table/column names, API endpoint formatting, and markdown heading generation.
- What are the different text case types?
Common case types include: (1) UPPERCASE - all letters capitalized (HELLO WORLD), (2) lowercase - all letters small (hello world), (3) Title Case - first letter of each word capitalized (Hello World), (4) Sentence case - first letter of sentence capitalized (Hello world), (5) camelCase - first word lowercase, subsequent words capitalized with no spaces (helloWorld), (6) PascalCase - all words capitalized with no spaces (HelloWorld), (7) snake_case - words separated by underscores, all lowercase (hello_world), (8) SCREAMING_SNAKE_CASE - words separated by underscores, all uppercase (HELLO_WORLD), (9) kebab-case - words separated by hyphens, lowercase (hello-world), (10) SCREAMING-KEBAB-CASE - words separated by hyphens, uppercase (HELLO-WORLD), (11) dot.case - words separated by dots (hello.world), (12) Path/Case - words separated by slashes (hello/world), (13) aLtErNaTiNg cAsE - alternates between lower and uppercase, (14) InVeRsE CaSe - swaps uppercase to lowercase and vice versa, (15) sPoNgEbOb cAsE - random capitalization for mocking text.
- How do I convert text to camelCase?
To convert text to camelCase: (1) Enter or paste your text in the input field, (2) the tool automatically displays camelCase conversion in the results grid, (3) click 'Copy' next to the camelCase result to copy to clipboard. The tool intelligently extracts words from any format (spaces, underscores, hyphens, existing camelCase) and converts to camelCase format: first word lowercase, subsequent words capitalized, no spaces or separators. For example, 'user first name' becomes 'userFirstName', 'user_first_name' becomes 'userFirstName', 'UserFirstName' becomes 'userFirstName'. Use camelCase for JavaScript/Java variable names, JSON object keys, and function names.
- What is snake_case and when should I use it?
snake_case is a naming convention where words are separated by underscores and all letters are lowercase (example: user_first_name). It's the standard for Python variable names, function names, and module names following PEP 8 style guide. Also used for: SQL database table names and column names (user_accounts, created_at), Ruby variable and method names, configuration file keys (database_host, api_key), file names in Linux/Unix systems, and CSV column headers. snake_case improves readability compared to camelCase in languages with underscores, making multi-word identifiers clear without capitalization. SCREAMING_SNAKE_CASE variant (all uppercase) is used for constants (MAX_RETRIES, API_BASE_URL).
- What is the difference between camelCase and PascalCase?
camelCase and PascalCase differ only in the first letter: camelCase starts with lowercase (getUserById), PascalCase starts with uppercase (GetUserById). Both eliminate spaces and capitalize subsequent words. Use cases: (1) camelCase - JavaScript/Java/C# variable names, function names, method names, JSON object keys. Example: firstName, getUserData(), isValid. (2) PascalCase - Class names in most languages (UserAccount, PaymentProcessor), React component names (UserProfile, NavBar), TypeScript interfaces (IUser, ApiResponse), enum types (OrderStatus, PaymentMethod), .NET namespace names. Some languages mix both: JavaScript uses camelCase for variables/functions but PascalCase for classes. Always follow your language's style guide: Python (snake_case), Go (camelCase/PascalCase), Rust (snake_case).
- How do I convert between different naming conventions?
This tool automatically converts text to all 15+ case formats simultaneously: (1) Enter text in ANY format (spaces, underscores, hyphens, camelCase, PascalCase, etc.), (2) the tool intelligently extracts words by detecting spaces, underscores, hyphens, dots, slashes, and camelCase boundaries, (3) all conversions appear instantly in the results grid, (4) click 'Copy' next to your desired format. The tool handles complex conversions: 'user-first-name' → 'userFirstName' (camelCase), 'getUserById' → 'get_user_by_id' (snake_case), 'API_BASE_URL' → 'ApiBaseUrl' (PascalCase). Use for: refactoring code between languages, converting API responses, formatting database migrations, cleaning spreadsheet data, or generating consistent variable names.
- What is kebab-case and where is it used?
kebab-case (also called dash-case or hyphen-case) separates words with hyphens and uses lowercase letters (example: user-first-name). Commonly used for: (1) URLs and slugs (example.com/blog-post-title), (2) CSS class names (btn-primary, nav-item-active), (3) HTML attribute names (data-user-id, aria-label-text), (4) file names in web projects (user-profile.html, api-utils.js), (5) Git branch names (feature/user-authentication), (6) npm package names (@company/utility-functions), (7) command-line flags (--enable-feature, --output-dir). kebab-case is preferred for URLs because spaces and underscores have special meaning in URLs (space = %20, underscore affects SEO), while hyphens are URL-safe and improve SEO readability. SCREAMING-KEBAB-CASE variant (all uppercase) is rare but used for HTTP headers (Content-Type becomes CONTENT-TYPE in some systems).
- Can I convert text to Title Case for headings?
Yes! The tool provides Title Case conversion following standard capitalization rules: (1) Enter your text, (2) find 'Title Case' in the results grid, (3) click 'Copy' to copy formatted text. Title Case capitalizes the first letter of each major word while keeping minor words (a, an, and, as, at, but, by, for, if, in, of, on, or, the, to, up, via) lowercase unless they're the first or last word. For example: 'guide to affiliate marketing' becomes 'Guide to Affiliate Marketing', 'best tools for developers' becomes 'Best Tools for Developers'. Use Title Case for: blog post titles, markdown headings, book chapters, presentation slides, email subjects, and documentation section headers. Note: different style guides (AP, Chicago, MLA) have variations—this tool uses common web/journalism rules.
- What is sPoNgEbOb cAsE and when would I use it?
sPoNgEbOb cAsE (also called mocking text or sarcasm case) randomly alternates between uppercase and lowercase letters to convey mockery or sarcasm, inspired by the SpongeBob mocking meme. Example: 'this is important' becomes 'ThIs iS ImPoRtAnT'. While not used in professional code or documentation, it's popular for: (1) social media posts and memes to express sarcasm, (2) Discord/Slack messages for humorous emphasis, (3) internet culture and online communities, (4) comedic effect in personal communications. The tool uses seeded randomization so the same input always produces the same output (consistency for testing). Note: aLtErNaTiNg cAsE strictly alternates every character (deterministic), while sPoNgEbOb cAsE uses pseudo-random capitalization (appears more chaotic).
- How do I use the case converter for code refactoring?
Case converter streamlines code refactoring across languages: (1) Copy variable/function name from source code (e.g., 'user_profile_data' from Python), (2) paste in the tool, (3) copy the target language's convention (e.g., 'userProfileData' for JavaScript), (4) find-replace in your codebase. Common refactoring scenarios: (1) Python to JavaScript - convert snake_case to camelCase (get_user_info → getUserInfo), (2) JavaScript to Python - convert camelCase to snake_case (fetchUserData → fetch_user_data), (3) API endpoint formatting - convert to kebab-case (getUserProfile → get-user-profile), (4) Database migrations - convert to snake_case (UserProfile → user_profile), (5) Class renaming - convert to PascalCase (api_handler → ApiHandler). Batch process multiple names by converting one, copying result, pasting next name. This ensures consistent naming conventions and prevents typos during large refactors.
- Can I convert all caps text to normal case?
Yes! The tool handles UPPERCASE conversions multiple ways: (1) Enter ALL CAPS text, (2) choose target format: 'lowercase' (all lowercase), 'Sentence case' (first letter capitalized), 'Title Case' (major words capitalized), 'camelCase', 'snake_case', etc. For example, 'HELLO WORLD' converts to 'hello world' (lowercase), 'Hello world' (Sentence case), 'Hello World' (Title Case), 'helloWorld' (camelCase), 'hello_world' (snake_case). Common use cases: fixing accidentally caps-locked text, cleaning data from legacy databases (old systems often stored names in ALL CAPS), converting shouting text to normal case for better readability, processing scraped data from forms, or formatting SQL column names (FIRST_NAME → first_name or firstName).
