Understanding Base64 Encoding
Base64 encoding is widely used in web development, email systems, and data transmission to represent binary data in a text format.
Common Use Cases
- • Embedding images in HTML/CSS (Data URIs)
- • Email attachments (MIME encoding)
- • Storing binary data in JSON/XML
- • Encoding authentication credentials
- • Transmitting binary data over text protocols
Additional Formats
Our tool also supports conversion to Hex, Binary, ASCII, URL encoding, Base32, and Unicode escape sequences, making it a comprehensive encoding toolkit.
Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about the Base64 Encoder Decoder
Base64 is a binary-to-text encoding scheme that represents binary data in an ASCII string format. It converts binary data into a set of 64 characters (A-Z, a-z, 0-9, +, /) that are safe for transmission over text-based protocols like email or HTTP.
