Frequently asked questions

Are accented characters supported?

Yes. Text is handled as UTF-8, so letters like ş, ğ, é and emoji work fine.

What is URL-safe Base64?

It uses - and _ instead of + and / from standard Base64 and drops the trailing =. It is used for JWTs and data carried in URLs.

Is Base64 encryption?

No. Base64 is only an encoding and anyone can decode it. Do not use it to protect secret data.
