About Base64 encoding
Base64 represents bytes using a text-friendly alphabet. This tool converts text to and from UTF-8 bytes, so it supports Unicode characters. Standard Base64 and Base64 URL-safe characters are accepted when decoding; whitespace and optional trailing padding are ignored.
Base64 is not encryption or a security measure. Anyone can decode it, so do not use it to protect passwords, tokens, or other sensitive information. This tool decodes text only; arbitrary binary data that is not valid UTF-8 cannot be displayed as text.
