Base64 online decoderen en coderen

Waarom deze Base64-converter?

• Privacy als uitgangspunt. Je tekst en bestanden worden lokaal met JavaScript verwerkt. Zelfs grote of vertrouwelijke bestanden verlaten je apparaat nooit.
• Kan overweg met Base64 uit de praktijk. Data-URI's, regeleinden, URL-veilige tekens en ontbrekende padding worden automatisch geaccepteerd, en foutmeldingen wijzen precies het foute teken aan.
• Elke standaard. Standaard RFC 4648, Base64URL, MIME, PEM, IMAP, XML en OpenPGP-armor.
• Elke tekenset. UTF-8, UTF-16, Windows-125x, ISO-8859-x, Shift_JIS, GBK, Big5, EUC-KR, KOI8 en meer.
• Direct plakklare uitvoer. Krijg een data-URI, CSS-regel, HTML-tag, JSON- of XML-fragment in plaats van een kale string.

Base64 decode and encode for developers

Developers use Base64 every day: embedding images in CSS and HTML, shipping binary in JSON APIs, reading JWTs, attaching files in MIME e-mail, and storing keys in PEM certificates. This free online Base64 decoder and encoder is built for that workflow—fast, accurate across standards, and private by default.

• Decode Base64 to text or file with automatic standard and charset detection, plus image/PDF/audio/video preview.
• Encode text, files or URLs to Base64 with UTF-8 and 35+ character sets, MIME line wrapping and Base64URL.
• Validate, repair and normalize messy Base64 from logs, e-mail and copy-paste with dedicated developer tools.
• Language guides for JavaScript, Python, Java, Go, PHP, C#, Node.js and Bash so you can match what your code produces.

Developer & IT toolkit (daily corporate searches)

Engineers live in browser tabs: regex on logs, cron next-runs, config diffs, CIDR math, YAML↔JSON for Kubernetes. All of these run locally here—safe when policy forbids pasting secrets into random SaaS.

• Regex tester — live highlight + presets (email, IP, UUID).
• Cron explainer — plain English + next fire times.
• Diff checker — compare configs / API responses privately.
• CIDR subnet calculator — VPC and firewall planning.
• YAML ↔ JSON — K8s, GitHub Actions, Ansible.

Christmas 2026: Secret Santa & countdown (high season)

From November through Christmas Eve, millions search for Secret Santa generators and “days until Christmas.” Draw Amigo Secreto privately with Base64URL links—no email signup—and keep a live countdown on your device.

• Secret Santa / Amigo Secreto — fair draw, couple exclusions, pass-the-phone or private WhatsApp links.
• Christmas countdown — how many days until Dec 25 in your timezone.

Save bandwidth: compress before Base64

Where mobile data is expensive—Brazil, LATAM and other prepaid markets—uploading a huge photo just to shrink it wastes the plan. Compress locally first, then encode or share once.

• Compress images to WebP/JPEG in your browser, see % saved, then download or copy Base64—no upload.
• Gzip text or JSON before Base64 for APIs; decompress payloads you receive.
• Private by design — Canvas and CompressionStream run on your device.

Private media tools (not social downloaders)

We will not scrape Instagram, LinkedIn, Pinterest or Kuaishou. We do help you prepare files you already own: convert HEIC/WebP, merge PDFs, cut out backdrops, build favicons—entirely in the browser.

• HEIC / WebP / SVG converter — iPhone photos and WebP downloads without uploading to Adobe/Canva-style sites.
• Merge PDF — combine contracts or turn images into a PDF locally (no Smallpdf upload).
• Remove background from product shots and logos (solid/near-solid backdrops).
• Favicon generator — PNG sizes, HTML tags and webmanifest, plus Base64 copy.

Built from real Reddit gaps (not Base64-only)

Users on Reddit keep asking for tools that never upload files: strip GPS EXIF, hash checksums, JSON formatters without ads, QR codes without tracking short links. We ship those here—private, free, and ranked for EU and US search.

• Strip EXIF before posting photos.
• Hash, JSON, UUID, timestamp, password, QR — everyday utilities that stay on-device.

Base64 reader: paste and see

Need a live Base64 viewer? Paste a string or data URI and read the result immediately—text, image, PDF or hex—or get Base64 output as you type plain text. No Decode click required.

Built for the AI era

ChatGPT and Claude often invent Base64 that looks right but is wrong. AI agents double-encode payloads and burn context on huge Base64 blobs. This site’s principle: never trust a model to be the encoder—verify with a real tool in your browser.

• Verify Base64 from LLM output with round-trip checks before you ship a header or JWT.
• Unwrap nested Base64 when an agent or gateway encoded twice.
• URL encode/decode beside Base64URL for safe query strings.
• Principles for agents and MCP: deterministic tools, privacy, right dialect, watch token cost.

Advanced options

• Character set. Base64 encodes bytes. Choose UTF-8 (default) or a legacy charset before encoding, or auto-detect when decoding text.
• Live mode. Enable “Convert as I type” to encode or decode instantly in the browser with no round-trip to a server.
• URL-safe Base64 (Base64URL). Use the Base64URL encoder/decoder for JWTs, tokens and filenames without escaping "+" or "/".
• MIME and PEM wrapping. Split lines at 76 or 64 characters when a mail client, certificate or OpenPGP tool expects wrapped output.
• Per-line encoding. On the text encoder, encode each line separately when you have multiple independent values.

Safe, free and private

All conversions run over HTTPS. Text and local files are converted in your browser with JavaScript—they are not uploaded or stored. The site is free to use with no account and no software to install. Optional remote URL fetching and a few network tools use our API; those responses are not kept for inspection.

Zo werkt Base64 in 30 seconden

Base64 neemt telkens drie bytes (24 bits), verdeelt die in vier groepen van 6 bits en koppelt elke groep aan een van 64 tekens. Het woord Man (bytes 77 97 110) wordt bijvoorbeeld TWFu. Lees het algoritme stap voor stap of begin met Wat is Base64?

Common uses include MIME e-mail attachments, data URIs in HTML and CSS, binary fields in JSON or XML, HTTP Basic authentication, and PEM-encoded certificates. When you need the reverse path, use Base64 decode online; to produce Base64 from scratch, use Base64 encode online.
