hashgen

The advent of hash functions has meant that data could be characterized by mapping arbitrary sizes to fixed values, therefore enabling a structured approach for indexing data that would otherwise carry an inherent chaotic nature. There are countless ways of working with and generating hash codes these days, even online platforms providing such functionality, but hashgen, just as its name adequately implies, is here to provide a dedicated desktop solution. This command-line-based app will allow you to rely on pre-defined syntax for easily generating MD5 hash codes for your apps.

The application features a very simple deployment, as it’s being offered as a command-line program, and using it is also a breeze. For those who might not be familiar with working with the CMD, the developer was kind enough to provide a detailed set of commands here.

Once initialized, hashgen will allow you to add various arguments to the hash generation process, and it will provide you with a detailed log of the inferred actions, which will allow you to preview all the steps of the process.

I was pleasantly surprised to see that the application also addresses other aspects than hash code generation. To that end, you will be able to perform both encoding and decoding in and from base64 format, as well as a range of other formats.

The wide range of supported hash formats ensures that the application carries a good degree of flexibility, mandating it for multiple approaches.

Featuring a very simplified, CMD form, this application can prove to be a good choice if you seek a simple and fast hash generator, which also addresses encoding and decoding to and from other formats.
