URL Encoder

Encoding and decoding URL strings.

Input data
Result

URL encoding converts special characters (spaces, non-Latin characters, punctuation) into a format safe for transmission in URLs and query parameters.

How is this different from Base64?

URL encoding only replaces characters invalid in URLs, while Base64 completely re-encodes data into a different alphabet.

When is this needed?

When forming query parameters with non-Latin characters or special symbols, such as in search queries or redirect links.

Is data processed on the server?

No, encoding happens locally in the browser via standard JavaScript API.
