About this tool

humans.txt Generator builds a plain-text credits file for the root of your website following the convention documented at humanstxt.org. Unlike robots.txt or security.txt, humans.txt is not defined by a formal standard, so this tool encodes the widely used community format rather than inventing rules: a TEAM section that lists the people behind the site, a THANKS section for the projects, libraries, and individuals you want to credit, and a SITE section for facts about how the site was built. Start from a preset (Solo maker, Small team, or Blank slate) or fill in the fields from scratch. The Team section gives each person a Role, Name, Contact, social handle, and Location, and you can add or remove as many people as you need. The Thanks section accepts one credit per line. The Site section collects the Last update date (with a one-click button that writes today in the conventional YYYY/MM/DD style), the web Standards used, the Components or stack, the Language, the Doctype, and the editor or Software. As you type, the live preview assembles the exact UTF-8 text file you should serve, with the ASCII-art comment headers (TEAM, THANKS, SITE) and blank-line spacing that make a humans.txt readable. Lightweight checks flag helpful tips, such as a missing name on a populated team block or a contact that looks like a malformed email, without blocking you, because the format is intentionally flexible. A copy button puts the file on your clipboard ready to commit to your repo, and a download button saves a humans.txt you can drop straight into your site root. The tool also gives you the conventional link tag (link rel author pointing at /humans.txt) to paste into your HTML head so visitors and crawlers can discover the file. humans.txt is a small, friendly touch: it credits the humans behind a project, documents the stack for the curious, and sits alongside robots.txt and security.txt as one of the recognizable files people look for at a site root. All assembly, validation, and downloads happen locally in your browser, so the names, contact details, and links you enter here are never uploaded or sent anywhere.
