About Base64 Encoding/Decoding
Base64 is a binary-to-text encoding scheme that represents binary data in an ASCII string format. It's commonly used when there's a need to encode binary data that needs to be stored and transferred over media that are designed to deal with text.
Common uses of Base64 encoding include:
- Embedding image data in HTML or CSS
- Encoding email attachments (MIME)
- Storing complex data in XML or JSON
- Transferring binary data in environments that only support text
- URL encoding for certain applications
This tool allows you to easily encode text and files to Base64, or decode Base64 strings back to their original format. It supports auto-detection of encoding for text and handles various file types.
