Are my files uploaded to a server?

No. OpenEdit processes everything locally in your browser using Web APIs, so your file never leaves your device.

Is this tool free to use?

Yes. Every OpenEdit tool is free, requires no account and adds no watermark to your exports.

Can I create a new INI / Config file from scratch?

Yes. Use the “Start a blank INI / Config file” button and you get an empty .ini buffer with INI / Config highlighting already enabled.

Online INI / Config Editor

Edit INI, conf and .env files with key/value highlighting. OpenEdit runs the same editor engine as VS Code directly in your browser tab — open a .ini file or start from a blank one, and nothing is ever uploaded.
