Frequently asked questions

What makes this TSV to Excel converter "browser-only"?

"Browser-only" means every computation: parsing the TSV input, transforming the data structure, and rendering the Excel output. This all happens inside your browser's JavaScript sandbox. No external API, server, or cloud service is contacted at any point.

Does the browser-only TSV to Excel tool work on all operating systems?

Yes. Because the tool runs entirely inside the browser, it is OS-agnostic. Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS, and Android are all supported as long as a modern browser is available. There is nothing to install or configure at the OS level.

Can I use the browser-only TSV to Excel converter behind a corporate firewall?

Yes. Once the page has loaded, the conversion makes no outbound network requests. Data never leaves the browser's sandboxed environment, which means it works in air-gapped or heavily firewalled corporate networks with no special firewall rules needed.

How does the browser-only approach affect TSV to Excel conversion speed?

Modern browsers' JIT-compiled JavaScript engines are fast enough for most TSV to Excel conversions in milliseconds to seconds. Processing is done inside a Web Worker thread to avoid blocking the UI, and there is zero network latency because no server is involved.

Is the browser-only TSV to Excel output identical to a server-side conversion?

Yes, for well-formed TSV inputs. The browser-only parser produces spec-compliant Excel output that is byte-for-byte equivalent to what a server-side tool would generate, while keeping your data completely private and local.
