JAR files • Max 50MB per file • Up to 10 files
Both formats, briefly
JARIN
A JAR is a ZIP archive with a manifest inside, used to ship Java classes, libraries and their resources as one unit. Everything it holds is ordinary compressed data. Convert one when you want to inspect or repackage the contents with tools that know nothing about Java.
TAROUT
A TAR file stacks many files into one without shrinking them, keeping Unix permissions, ownership and folder structure exactly as they were. On Linux that makes it the usual first step before a compressor such as gzip or xz runs over the result. Reach for plain TAR when you want a faithful bundle and will handle compression separately, or not at all.
Three steps, start to finish
Add your JAR
Drag it onto the page, or pull it in from your computer, Google Drive or Dropbox.
TAR is preselected
This page is already set to write TAR. Switch the target if you change your mind.
Take the TAR
Grab the result the moment the job clears. Your upload is wiped straight afterwards.
