Source Decoder

Considering that they need to protect their hard work, encrypting the source code is a common practice among developers who want to prevent others from viewing, copying and modifying their applications.

Then again, let us not forget that if you want to create a web page, then you need to use clear text in order to render it. Source Decoder is a utility that can help you crack the encode and hence, gain access to the information hidden in Java, TXT or HTML files and scripts.

The setup is quick, uneventful and does not require any special attention from your part. You can simply decompress the archive and start using the application right away without having to make additional configurations.

While the program comes with a rugged and bare-bones interface, it is clean and suitable for the role of the program. The main window is split into two panels, one that enables you to copy the encrypted source code and the another that allows you to preview the hidden information.

The application is as simple to use as it looks, meaning that you can paste the unescaped source code in the upper panel and then hit the Decode button to view the actual data within. The tool works with a handful of source codes, such as text, HTML, Java and URL script.

Despite the fact that the utility enables you to access hidden information, such as a code string or an email address for instance, you should know that you cannot use the app for encoding. If you want to protect data from theft or modifications, then you need to employ another third-party software solution.

If you want to be able to render a web page or release an online application in environments where hiding or encrypting the source code is not acceptable, then perhaps Source Decoder could lend you a hand.
