What this tool does
A four-way CSS unit converter for front-end developers and designers. Type a value in px, rem, em, or pt and the other three recompute live — no submit button, no round-trip lag. The root (html) font size defaults to 16px (the browser default) but you can override it from 12 to 24 to match a design system that shipped a custom base. Em uses a separate "parent" font size so you can sanity-check how a nested component scales relative to its container, not just to root. A live preview renders sample text at the current pixel size, so you can tell at a glance whether 1.125rem actually looks like a heading. Batch mode takes a list like "12px 14px 16px 18px 24px 32px" and outputs a clean px → rem / em / pt table you can paste into a design spec. A built-in reference shows the canonical breakpoints every CSS framework agrees on (12px = 0.75rem, 16px = 1rem, 24px = 1.5rem, 32px = 2rem). 100% client-side; nothing leaves your browser.
