CSV to Array Converter

Paste CSV data and get a paste-ready array literal in your language of choice — no data-interchange format in between.

The regular CSV Converter turns CSV into JSON or XML for APIs and data pipelines. This tool is for a narrower, more common job: you have a spreadsheet or a quick data dump and just want it as an actual array variable you can drop straight into a script — a JavaScript array of objects for a frontend mock, a Python list of dicts for a notebook, or a PHP array for a seed file. Paste your CSV, pick a delimiter, choose the output language and array shape (array-of-objects using your header row as keys, or a plain array-of-arrays), and the generator writes correctly quoted, properly indented code. No data leaves your browser, and there's nothing to install.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I convert CSV to a JavaScript array?

Paste your CSV, select JavaScript as the language, choose Array of Objects (uses your header row as keys) or Array of Arrays, and click Convert. Copy the generated `const data = [...]` straight into your code.

Does it support Python and PHP too?

Yes. Select Python to get a list of dicts or lists, or PHP to get an associative or indexed array — both with correctly escaped quotes.

What is the difference between this and the CSV Converter?

CSV Converter outputs data-interchange formats (JSON/XML) for APIs. CSV to Array outputs an actual code variable — a JS/TS/Python/PHP array literal — ready to paste directly into a script.
