Binary Value & Endianness Inspector
Interpret one byte buffer many ways: unsigned/signed integers (two's and one's complement), IEEE-754 floats (half, single and double, with the sign/exponent/mantissa breakdown and a plain-language explainer), text (ASCII, UTF-8, UTF-16), a Unix timestamp, and IPv4/IPv6, across big/little endianness (big-endian is network byte order), plus a small struct-template mapper with per-field byte order and bit-fields. A hex/ASCII dump sits beside the readings: pick a reading and its bytes light up; pick a byte and the reading that explains it lights up.

About this tool3 paragraphs
Byte swap and word swap toggles rewrite the buffer before it is read (the network-byte-order and mixed-width comparison the tool is for) and the swapped bytes are printed so the transform is visible. You can type the bytes or open a local file.
Every reading is offered at once because bytes do not say what they are. The same four bytes are a plausible integer, a plausible float, a date in 1970 and a routable address simultaneously, and nothing in them prefers one. That is the point of showing all of them side by side rather than asking you to choose a type first, and it is also why a reading that looks sensible is a hypothesis rather than an answer.
Byte order is the same kind of claim. A buffer carries no record of the endianness it was written with, so the tool shows both and lets the plausible one identify itself; the struct-template mapper is for when you already know the layout and want the fields named. It reads a file's bytes and never its meaning: it will not tell you what produced them, and a file opened here is read in the browser and goes nowhere.
