References — 9 free browser-based developer tools including ASCII Table, HTML Entities Reference and CSS Units Reference. Everything runs locally with no signup or uploads, so your data stays private and results are instant.
How to Use
- 1Open the reference you need— ASCII codes and HTML entities, CSS units, Git and Linux commands, editor keyboard shortcuts and emoji each have their own page, so you land on the table rather than on an article.
- 2Filter down to the exact entry— The search box narrows the table as you type, which is faster than scrolling a long cheatsheet or reading a manual page.
- 3Copy it, then check it is usable— One click copies the character, code or command; the browser compatibility checker tells you where a feature is supported and the semver checker whether a version satisfies a range.

Any release that keeps the leftmost non-zero number, so ^1.2.3 accepts 1.9.0 but not 2.0.0, while ~1.2.3 only accepts patches up to 1.2.x. Feed two versions to the Semver Checker and it tells you which is newer and whether the jump is a major, minor or patch change.

rem for font sizes and spacing that should scale with the reader's browser setting, em when a value should follow the element's own font size such as padding inside a button, and vh or vw only where the measurement genuinely relates to the viewport. The CSS Units Reference groups every unit with guidance on where each behaves predictably.
