Snake Case Converter

The Snake Case Converter rewrites phrases as snake_case — all lowercase words joined by underscores — the naming convention of Python, Ruby, and most database columns. It is the reliable bridge when you are turning UI labels or camelCase names from another codebase into valid Python identifiers or column names, and it works from any starting style.
