Understanding Base64 Encoding
Base64 is a binary-to-text encoding scheme that represents binary data in an ASCII string format. Converting images to Base64 allows you to embed them directly in HTML, CSS, or JavaScript without separate image files. This is useful for small images, icons, and when you want to reduce HTTP requests.
🎯 Why Base64 Conversion Matters
- Embedded Images: Include images directly in HTML/CSS
- Reduced HTTP Requests: Fewer server requests for small images
- Offline Support: Images work without internet connection
- Email Compatibility: Embed images in HTML emails
- API Integration: Send images as text in API requests
- Data URIs: Create self-contained web resources
