How to Use Base64 Encoder / Decoder
Base64 Encoder / Decoder Formula / How It Works
The tool converts binary inputs to 6-bit index characters using browser-native window.btoa and window.atob translation APIs.
For example, let's look at encoding the plain text string "HelloTools" to Base64 format. By entering these values into the tool, you will get the encoded Base64 string "SGVsbG9Ub29scw==" generated locally instantly.
