Automated Python 2 to 3 code translation

I don't mean to be negative, but how is this better than just using the `2to3` tool that already ships with Python?

But this web-2to3 is monetised with ads. The python community didn't think of that.

They (the python community) doesn't require a library for left-padding. I don't think they will fall for this

That's not negative. That's the first and possibly only question.

2to3 "works" on whole projects and I'm not sending my code whoknowswhere.

I understand this is meant as a side-project for the author to learn new stuff. From his blog: "It’s an online tool that I built for myself, and I hope other people can get some use out of it, I hav ported a lot of code in pyhon2 to python3 and I thouhgt thatthis web can help other people and also, it was a good oportunity for my, because I learned javascript and bootstrap for do it."

It's better for the people that operate the site because they get all of your Python code.
