Discord Text Formatter client-side ?
How to use Discord Text FormatterDiscord uses a Markdown variant for formatting: bold, italic, underline, strikethrough, inline code, code blocks, quotes and lists. But to write in color you must use an “ANSI” code block with escape codes — few people know this. This tool lets you apply each style in one click, pick text and background colors, and see a preview that mirrors how Discord renders it. Then copy the result, ready to paste into chat.

Frequently asked questions
How do I write colored text on Discord?
Discord only colors text inside a ```ansi code block with ANSI escape codes. The tool generates them for you; paste the block as-is.
Do colors work on mobile?
ANSI blocks render in color on Discord desktop and web; the mobile client may show them as plain text depending on the version.
