Frequently Asked Questions

What is Base64 encoding for images?

Base64 is a method to encode binary data, like an image, into a text string. This allows you to embed the image directly into code (HTML, CSS, or JS) instead of linking to an external file, which can reduce HTTP requests.

Is it safe to convert my images here?

Yes, completely safe. The conversion happens entirely in your browser. Your image is never uploaded to any server.
