About Base64 Encoding
Base64 is a binary-to-text encoding scheme that represents binary data in an ASCII string format. It's commonly used for:
- Encoding binary data in emails or web pages
- Storing complex data in formats like XML or JSON
- Data URIs in HTML and CSS (e.g., embedding images directly)
Common Use Cases
Web Development: Base64 encoding for inline images in HTML/CSS.
API Development: Encoding binary data for transmission in JSON payloads.
Authentication: Encoding credentials in basic HTTP authentication.
Cryptography: Converting binary keys and signatures to text format.
