Easily Convert Data To and From Base64
Our Base64 Encode and Decode tool provides a simple way to convert data into a Base64 string and back again. Base64 is a common encoding scheme used to represent binary data (like images or executables) in a text-based format, making it safe for transmission over protocols that only support plain text, such as email (MIME) or for embedding data directly into HTML or CSS files.
How to Use the Tool
- Input Your Data: Paste your text or upload a file into the input field.
- Choose an Action: Click "Encode" to convert your data to Base64, or "Decode" to convert a Base64 string back to its original form.
- Copy the Result: Your converted output will appear instantly, ready to be copied and used.
Why Use a Base64 Converter?
Base64 encoding is not a form of encryption but rather a way to represent data. It's widely used by developers for:
- Embedding images directly into a CSS or HTML file (Data URIs).
- Sending file attachments in emails.
- Ensuring binary data remains intact without modification during transport.
Key Features
- Two-Way Conversion: Seamlessly switch between encoding and decoding.
- File Support: Upload files directly from your device for conversion.
- Secure & Fast: All processing is done in your browser, so your data never leaves your computer.
