Frequently Asked Questions
›What is Base64 encoding?
Base64 is a binary-to-text encoding scheme that converts binary data into ASCII characters. It's commonly used to embed images in HTML/CSS, pass data in URLs, and encode API credentials.
›Does this handle UTF-8?
Yes. The encoder properly handles UTF-8 characters including emojis, accented characters, and non-Latin scripts.
›Is Base64 encryption?
No. Base64 is encoding, not encryption. Anyone can decode Base64 — it provides no security. It's used for safe data transport, not secrecy.
