GitHub Stats
About Cutter
Cutter is a graphical user interface (GUI) for the Radare2 reversing framework, designed to make reverse engineering more accessible. It includes features like graph views, a decompiler, and a hex editor, enhancing the usability of Radare2's capabilities. Developed in C++, Cutter provides a user-friendly interface that simplifies complex analysis tasks, making it popular among both novice and experienced reverse engineers.
About ILSpy
ILSpy is the open-source .NET assembly browser and decompiler. It supports decompilation of .NET assemblies to C# with high-quality output, including support for modern C# features like async/await, LINQ, and pattern matching. ILSpy can decompile entire assemblies or individual types and members, with the ability to search across loaded assemblies and navigate type hierarchies. It supports .NET Framework, .NET Core, .NET 5+, and Mono assemblies. Unlike dnSpy, ILSpy focuses purely on decompilation and browsing rather than debugging and editing, making it lighter and more focused. It's available as a standalone Windows application, a VS Code extension, and a command-line tool (ilspycmd) for cross-platform use. ILSpy is actively maintained and is the most widely used open-source .NET decompiler.
