About Binary File Viewer

The Low-Level Binary File & Byte Stream Inspector opens any executable, archive, or raw data file, decoding bytes as 8-bit, 16-bit, 32-bit, 64-bit Integers, Floats, Bitmasks, and Endianness layouts (Little-Endian vs Big-Endian).

Step-by-Step Guide

How to Use Binary File Viewer

1

Step 1

Upload any binary file (.dat, .bin, .exe, .so, .rom).

2

Step 2

Click on any byte offset in the hex stream.

3

Step 3

Review the decoded integer, float, and string interpretations in the sidebar.

4

Step 4

Toggle between Little-Endian and Big-Endian modes.

Industry Scenarios

Practical Use Cases for Binary File Viewer

Reverse Engineering Custom Binary File Formats

Inspect struct offsets, variable-length headers, and custom game data files by reading raw binary integers and floats.

Network Packet & Hardware Protocol Debugging

Examine raw byte sequences from serial communications and network sockets across big-endian and little-endian architectures.

Technical Glossary

Key Terminology & Definitions

Endianness (Byte Order)

The order in which bytes of a multi-byte word are stored in computer memory; Little-Endian puts the least significant byte first.

JavaScript `DataView`

A low-level interface providing a getter/setter API to read and write arbitrary binary numbers in an `ArrayBuffer` regardless of system endianness.
