Gzip to Text Decompress Tool

Using this tool, you can compress your text or decompress your compressed text using Gzip (gz), Deflate, or Brotli compression algorithms. You can also compare the size between your source and result in bytes. Please note that the text uses UTF-8 encoding for compression, and the result will be encoded using Base64 by default. Similarly, decompression accepts Base64 encoded compressed text, and the result will be encoded using UTF-8.

What is GZip Compression?

Gzip compression is a lossless data compression algorithm used to compress and decompress files. Gzip uses the Deflate algorithm as one of its compression methods, but also includes additional features such as a checksum for data integrity and file metadata.

The Gzip compression algorithm works by replacing repeated patterns in the input data with references to earlier occurrences of the same pattern. It does this by using the LZ77 algorithm to find repeated patterns and replacing them with references to the earlier occurrences of the same pattern. It then uses Huffman coding to encode the resulting symbols using variable-length codes that take into account the frequency of occurrence of each symbol.

Gzip compression is widely used because it is fast, efficient, and widely supported on different platforms. Gzip compression is commonly used for compressing web pages, log files, and other types of text files that need to be transmitted over the internet or stored on disk.
