Base64 Encoder/Decoder
Encode text or files to Base64 format, or decode Base64 strings back to their original form. Perfect for developers and web designers.
💡 What is Base64?
Base64 is an encoding scheme that converts binary data into ASCII text. It's commonly used to embed images in HTML/CSS, send binary data over text-based protocols, and store complex data in JSON.
Common Uses:
- • Embedding images in HTML/CSS
- • Email attachments (MIME)
- • Storing binary in JSON/XML
Note:
Base64 encoding increases file size by ~33%. It's not encryption - anyone can decode it.
