Choose the easiest way to protect your JavaScript

Start online when you want a quick test. Use WinUI Local Standard for offline basic ES5 .js protection, or desktop hosted mode for larger, modern, advanced, or mixed-file projects. Editor and advanced integrations also send selected JavaScript to the hosted service.

Try Online Obfuscator Download Desktop App Read Workflow Guide

The simplest path

Try a small sample, pick the protection strength, then use the desktop app when you need to protect real project files.

1. Open the online obfuscator and protect a small JavaScript sample.
2. Choose Standard, Balanced, or Maximum based on how much protection you need.
3. Download the desktop app when you want to protect folders, larger files, or embedded JavaScript.
4. Upgrade to a paid plan when the free limits are too small or you need stronger protection.
5. Add release integrations only when repeatable automation is actually needed.
