retdec
A retargetable machine-code decompiler based on LLVM, supporting multiple architectures and file formats.
What is retdec?
RetDec is a retargetable machine-code decompiler that converts compiled binaries back into high-level source code like C or a Python-like language. It is built on LLVM and supports a wide range of architectures and file formats, enabling detailed static analysis and code reconstruction. The tool is essential for reverse engineering, security research, and understanding legacy or obfuscated software.
Security researchers, malware analysts, reverse engineers, and developers working with binary analysis or legacy code who need to decompile executables across multiple platforms.
Developers choose RetDec for its architecture-agnostic design, extensive format support, and accurate reconstruction of high-level code structures, all backed by the LLVM framework for reliable analysis.
