Frequently Asked Questions

What is Base64?
Base64 is an encoding scheme that converts binary data into ASCII text using 64 printable characters. It's commonly used for embedding images in HTML/CSS, encoding JWT tokens, and transmitting binary data over text channels.
What is URL-safe Base64?
URL-safe Base64 replaces '+' with '-' and '/' with '_', and omits padding '=' characters. This is used in JWT tokens and URLs where standard Base64 special characters would need escaping.
Is my data safe?
Yes. All encoding/decoding happens in your browser. No data is sent to any server.
