Boop is a scratchpad for text transformations — paste something in, run a script, get the result. It ships with scripts for encoding/decoding, formatting JSON/XML/HTML, hashing, case conversion, regex, sorting, diffing and dozens more. You can also write custom scripts in JavaScript. No subscription, no fuss, just a quick ⌘⇧B and a search.

Built-in Scripts
Covers JSON format/minify, Base64 encode/decode, URL encode/decode, HTML entities, SHA/MD5 hash, case conversion (camel, snake, title), sort lines, remove duplicates, count characters, diff two blocks, and many more.
Custom Scripts
Drop a .js file into ~/Library/Application Support/Boop/Scripts/. Scripts receive text input and return modified text. Full JavaScript with access to a sandboxed environment.
Undo
Each transformation is undoable. Chain multiple scripts on the same text by running them sequentially — use ⌘Z to step back through transforms.
