Technical Architecture
How it works
Base64 is a way to represent binary data (like an image) using only standard text characters. This tool simply reverses that process, turning those characters back into the original bytes of your image file.
Why it matters
Since we do all the work locally in your browser, it's significantly faster than uploading to a server, and much safer for your private photos.
