Frequently Asked Questions
What does the Add Quotes to Words tool do?
This tool automatically detects individual words in your text and wraps each one in quotation marks (single, double, or backticks). It then joins them back together using your chosen separator, making it easy to create lists for programming or data analysis.
Can I wrap words in brackets instead of quotes?
Yes! You can choose Parentheses (), Square Brackets [], Curly Braces {}, or Angle Brackets <> internally of standard quotes. This is perfect for formatting lists.
How do I use custom wrappers?
Select the Custom option. You can then define any start string (e.g., wrap() and end string (e.g., )) to surround each word.
How do I create a JavaScript string array?
Simply paste your words, select Double or Single quotes, and choose Comma as the separator. You can then wrap the result in brackets [] to get a valid JavaScript array like ['apple', 'banana', 'cherry'].
Can I use this for SQL IN clauses?
Yes! This is perfect for generating SQL lists. Paste your IDs or values, select Single Quotes and Comma separator. The output will be ready to paste into your query: WHERE text_column IN ('value1', 'value2', 'value3').
What is Batch Mode?
Batch Mode processes your input line-by-line. Instead of flattening your entire text into one single list, it preserves your line breaks, creating a separate quoted list for each line. This is useful for maintaining data structure or processing specific rows.
Can I upload a file to quote?
Absolutely. You can click the Upload button to load text from .txt, .md, .csv, or .json files directly into the editor for processing.
Is there a limit to how many words I can process?
The tool runs entirely in your browser, so it can handle as much text as your computer's memory allows. Optimizations ensure it remains fast even with thousands of words.
Does it remove existing quotes?
No, this tool blindly adds quotes around identified words. If your words already have quotes, you might end up with double quotes. Use our Remove Quotes tool first if you need to clean data.
Is my data secure?
Yes. All processing happens client-side in your browser. No text is ever sent to our servers, making it safe for confidential data.
Can I download the result?
Yes, you can download the processed text as a .txt file with a single click using the download button in the result panel.
What are the supported quote types?
We support standard Double Quotes ("), Single Quotes ('), and Backticks (`) for Template Literals.
