HTML - gtm2en.html is a basic form that lets you upload a container.

Javascript - minimal ux.js handles hiding and showing of assets and asset lists,.

php - The engine room. To parse a container, post it to gtm2en.php using a form variable named "container". Assuming the format is valid, we extract tags, triggers, variables, user defined variables, built in variables and folders.

That's it. As few moving parts as possible. Plenty of scope for optimisation and adding more functionality so feel free to fork.

Use this script as the bookmarklet to start Explain GTM when using GTM:

javascript:(function(o,m,g){ g=o.getElementsByTagName(m)[0];var j=o.createElement(m);j.async=true;j.src='//YOURDOMAIN.com/gtm2en.js';g.parentNode.insertBefore(j,g);})(document,'script');

gtm2en.js is included in this rep along with the GTM contain export to measure the tool. Make sure you change the container ID in the markup.
