TxtToSL Web

TxtToSL Web is open source, and has many contributors. Being open source allows us to develop and expand more easily whilst recieving help and contributors from the community.

After loading, the app only makes requests every hour and when the user translates.


A range of options

Choose the video hoster, quality, speed, and more.

Simple, responsive, Material Design UI

The accessible UI allows for easy use, no matter the size of the device.


Dark Theme

TxtToSL Web was built with dark mode since the start, making it continue to look good whilst being easy on your eyes.


TxtToSL API Wrapper for NodeJS

Promise-based

By using Promises, translation is asynchronous so it doesn't take up the main thread, allowing other things to happen in the background whilst translating.

Why?

"I wanted to make a Google Translate-like translator. Not always 100% accurate but still alright, as well as easy and simple to use."
