Works
Viewing, inspecting and verifying. You get the source with language-aware colouring and line numbers. File details, exact byte size and the detected signature are always shown.
How to open a .tsx file
A TSX file is a TypeScript JSX, introduced by Microsoft / Meta in 2015. Below: what is actually inside one, and how to open it without installing special software.
What is a .tsx file?
TypeScript JSX is a code format developed by Microsoft / Meta, first appearing in 2015. It is normally produced by React projects.
TypeScript with JSX syntax enabled. In .tsx files the angle-bracket cast syntax is unavailable because it collides with JSX tags.

Open a .tsx file in your browser
OpenAnyFile routes .tsx to its syntax highlighter, which highlights the source with language-aware colouring and line numbers.
- Open the OpenAnyFile opener in this browser — nothing to download or sign up for.
- Drag your .tsx file onto the drop zone, click to browse for it, or paste it with Ctrl+V.
- The extension is detected and the file is handed to the syntax highlighter.
- Your TSX opens on its own viewer page: the source with language-aware colouring and line numbers.
- Use fullscreen for a closer look, or download the file back out unchanged. Free, and free in the sense that there is no paid tier waiting behind step three.

Does not work
Editing and re-saving. OpenAnyFile is a reader, not an editor — for changes you still need special software or an equivalent.
Is it safe to open a {E} file on a website?
It depends entirely on whether the website uploads it, and almost all of them do. That is a real problem when the code file in question is a contract, a client deliverable or something under NDA. OpenAnyFile removes the question: the decoding happens inside your browser tab, so there is no transfer, no queue, no temporary storage and no retention window to read about in a privacy policy.
Frequently asked questions about TSX files
Can I open a .tsx file without installing special software?
Yes. OpenAnyFile's syntax highlighter runs in your browser, so you can read a TSX file with nothing installed. You get the source with language-aware colouring and line numbers. For full editing you still need the original application — this is a viewer, not an editor.
How can I tell what a .tsx file actually contains?
The .tsx extension carries no fixed signature, so the extension alone proves nothing. Opening it in OpenAnyFile shows the raw header bytes and detected type, which is the only reliable way to identify one.
Is it safe to open a TSX file online?
With OpenAnyFile, yes, because nothing is uploaded. The file is read locally through your browser's File API and never leaves your device, so there is no server copy to leak, log or retain. That matters most for the kind of file people are least willing to hand to a random converter site.
What is a .tsx file, exactly?
TypeScript JSX — a text/typescript-jsx format created by Microsoft / Meta since 2015. TypeScript with JSX syntax enabled. In .tsx files the angle-bracket cast syntax is unavailable because it collides with JSX tags.
Does the same viewer handle formats related to TSX?
Yes — the same engine also opens .html, .xml, .sql, so you can compare related files without switching tools.

These open with the same engine, so if you have one of these sitting next to your .tsx file, it will open too:
