FAQ

Base64 is a binary-to-text encoding scheme that converts binary data (like images) into ASCII strings. It increases file size by about 33% but allows images to be embedded directly in text-based formats.

A Data URI is a URI scheme that embeds data directly in a URL string. For images, it looks like data:image/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgo... and can be used in HTML, CSS, and other web contexts.

There is no server-side limit since all processing happens in your browser. However, very large images may produce very long Base64 strings that some applications cannot handle.

No. All encoding happens locally in your browser using the FileReader API. Your images never leave your device.
