Workflow & Usage
-
Paste your text Drop a phrase, title, or a whole list into the input box.
-
Get camelCase output instantly The output updates live as you type:
hello world→helloWorldpricing plan v2→pricingPlanV2
-
Copy and use it Click Copy and paste into code, JSON, spreadsheets, or documentation.
If you need other formats (PascalCase, snake_case, Slug, Title Case, etc.), use the full Text Transformer tool.
What camelCase Is Good For
camelCase is one of those formats you don’t notice until you need it — then you need it everywhere:
-
JavaScript / TypeScript variables and functions
send email reminder→sendEmailReminder -
Object keys and JSON fields
Clean up inconsistent input into predictable keys for APIs and configs. -
Tracking params, event names, and internal IDs
Great when you want readable identifiers without spaces. -
Refactoring and “rename this fast” moments
When you’re moving between docs, spreadsheets, and code — camelCase keeps things consistent.
Note: For URLs, use Slug instead of camelCase. Slugs are designed for the web: they stay readable, handle punctuation cleanly, and don’t mash words together.
Examples
Common conversions
Hello world→helloWorldAPI key v2→apiKeyV2room 12A check-in time→room12ACheckInTimealreadyCamelCase→alreadyCamelCase
From separators
image-resizer tool→imageResizerTooluser_name→userNameproduct.price.usd→productPriceUsd
Multi-line lists
Input:
blog post title
primary button color
utm campaign name
Output:
blogPostTitle
primaryButtonColor
utmCampaignName
Use Cases
-
Developers Convert human-readable phrases into variable names, method names, or object properties.
-
Marketing ops Normalize event labels (analytics), parameter names, and internal tracking fields.
-
CMS and spreadsheets Turn column headers into consistent keys before exporting data to JSON or an API.
-
Documentation Keep naming consistent across docs, examples, and code snippets without manual retyping.
Tips for Best Results
-
Start with the “real words” If your input is messy (extra punctuation or repeated separators), clean it up first — or use the full Text Transformer for more options.
-
Acronyms are a style choice Some teams prefer
apiKey, others preferAPIKey. This converter aims for predictable casing. If you need strict acronym rules, do a quick pass on the output. -
Prefer camelCase for internals camelCase is great for code and keys, but not ideal for human-facing headings. For readable titles, use Title Case or Sentence case in the full tool.
How It Works
-
Local-only transformation Your text is split into words (spaces, underscores, dashes, dots, etc.), then joined back together with:
- the first word lowercased
- each next word capitalized
-
Character-safe behavior The converter focuses on casing and word joining. It keeps numbers, and it doesn’t upload or store anything.
-
Fast by design It’s plain string processing in your browser, so even large lists update instantly.
