rev.ng
rev.ng is a decompiler for reverse engineering that turns supported binaries into syntactically valid, standard-compliant C. Its data-structure recovery uses information across functions to identify linked lists, structs, arrays, and arrays of structs. The listed default architectures are x86, x86-64, ARM, AArch64, MIPS, and S390X; supported imports include ELF, PE/COFF, Mach-O, DWARF, PDB, and IDB. Users can define functions, edit prototypes, and rename items in YAML files, or interact through an HTTP API. The interface is described as available in a browser or standalone app, with cloud and standalone use offering the same experience. Collaborators can share a project URL; public projects include two collaborators. The rev.ng decompilation pipeline is Free Software, while the UI is intended for commercial cloud and standalone versions. The service is free and lists API, Linux, macOS, web, and Windows platforms. The site invites users to join a closed beta for the UI.
