What is an HTML Entity Decoder?

An HTML Entity Decoder is a tool that converts HTML entities back into their original characters. HTML entities are used to display reserved characters (like `<`, `>`, `&`) or special characters that are not on a standard keyboard. This tool reverses that process, making the text readable.
