Find all permutations of letters and check if two words are anagrams. Educational tool for word puzzles, Scrabble, and crosswords. 100% free, private,.
Two tools in one: check whether any two words are anagrams of each other, or generate every possible arrangement of letters from a single word.
Anagram checking sorts the letters of both inputs and compares the sorted strings. Permutation generation uses a depth-first recursive algorithm and stores results in a Set to remove duplicates from repeated letters.
Everything runs locally. No words are sent to a server.
