Recently I started planning the trip of my girlfriend an me to California, together with AI. During this process I asked it “Make me a CSV file of all the highlights during our trip” and “Now create a CSV of all the best restaurants we should visit”. The result; indeed CSV, but as text in its response. I started looking for tools to turn this CSV formatted text into a CSV file, but I couldn’t find a solid tool, so, I made one!

Where can I access it?

CSV Text ↔ CSV File (https://jannicknijholt.github.io/csv-text-to-file/)

What does it do?

Well it’s quite simple. The tool will make it possible to download the CSV you created or got from an AI chat as a CSV file. Otherway around, you can upload a CSV file and it gives you back the content as text for you to paste into an AI chat.

It’s probably vibe coded…

I can hear you thinking “You already mentioned AI, this is probably vibe coded.” and yes, you’re right. I used Kilo Code in Visual Studio Code and used the Sonnet 4 model by Antrophic. Because it’s a simple tool, that only uses Javascript, does 1 thing and all of it locally, I think it’s a perfectly fine way to do it.

Any more information?

Nope, I think that’s it. Just try it out and if you have feedback, please let me know!
