Unit Converter

About This Tool

This tool provides a two-way unit converter that supports quick, accurate conversions between user-selected units across mass, length, volume, temperature, and other families. It enforces dimensional validity so only compatible unit pairs are convertible, making it suitable for engineering, scientific, and educational workflows. Real-time feedback helps users compare alternatives and verify calculations rapidly.
Conceptually, each unit is defined in a registry with a dimension (e.g., mass, length) and a scale to a base unit. Most conversions are performed by converting the input to a base unit and then to the target unit using the appropriate factor. Temperature scales are treated specially to apply offsets (for example, Celsius to Fahrenheit uses an offset and scale).
The tool benefits engineers designing experiments, researchers analyzing data, designers sizing components, and students learning measurements. Its differentiators include strict dimension checks to prevent nonsensical conversions, immediate result display, and a configurable precision setting that preserves meaningful figures for reports and calculations.
Core features include paired unit selectors, a numeric value input, precision control, and a deterministic conversion registry. It supports common unit families and aliases, operates offline without network calls, and can be extended with custom units and export options for batch use.
