Frequently asked questions

What's the difference between encoding and decoding?

Encoding replaces unsafe characters with % escapes so they survive in a URL; decoding turns those escapes back into the original characters.

Does it handle special characters and Unicode?

Yes. Encoding and decoding are UTF-8 aware, so spaces, symbols and non-Latin scripts are handled correctly.

Is my input sent to a server?

No. Everything happens locally in your browser.
