Base64 Encoder/Decoder
About Base64 Encoding
Base64 is a binary-to-text encoding scheme that represents binary data in an ASCII string format by translating it into a radix-64 representation. 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 ASCII.
Use cases include:
- Encoding email attachments
- Storing complex data in JSON
- Embedding image data directly in HTML or CSS
- Transferring binary data in URL parameters
