When should I use dot.case?

Use dot.case for: Object property paths (config.database.host), namespace identifiers, package names in some languages, configuration file keys, and anywhere dot notation is the standard.

How is dot.case different from snake_case?

dot.case uses dots as separators (user.profile.name), while snake_case uses underscores (user_profile_name). dot.case is typically used for hierarchical paths and namespaces, while snake_case is for variable names.

Can I convert multiple paths at once?

Yes! Enable Batch Mode to convert multiple object paths or namespace identifiers line-by-line. Perfect for formatting configuration paths or package names.

What programming contexts use dot.case?

dot.case is used in: JavaScript object path notation (lodash.get), configuration files (YAML, TOML), Java package names (com.example.app), namespace identifiers, and hierarchical data structures.

Can I upload a file with paths?

Yes! Click the Upload icon to load a .txt file (max 1MB) containing paths or namespace names to convert. Useful for batch formatting configuration files.

Is my data saved or stored?

No. All conversion happens 100% client-side in your browser. Your paths and data never leave your device.
