What is Base64?

Base64 is an encoding scheme that converts binary data into ASCII text. It's commonly used to embed images directly in HTML, CSS, or JavaScript without requiring separate image files.

Use Cases:

  • • Embed small icons in CSS
  • • Send images via JSON APIs
  • • Reduce HTTP requests

Considerations:

  • • Increases file size by ~33%
  • • Best for small images (<10KB)
  • • Not cached separately by browsers
