Base64 vs bytes

0.0%

UTF-8 aware

The converter encodes JavaScript source as UTF-8 bytes first, so emoji, accents, and non-ASCII code all round-trip correctly.

Text encoding, not security

Base64 is a transport-friendly text encoding. It does not encrypt or protect JavaScript content.

Useful for fixtures and transport

This is handy when JavaScript snippets need to travel through JSON, forms, environment values, or plain-text payloads.

How JavaScript to Base64 Works

Base64 does not operate on JavaScript syntax directly. The source text is first converted into UTF-8 bytes, and those bytes are then encoded into the Base64 alphabet.

On decode, the process reverses: the Base64 text becomes bytes again, and those bytes are decoded as UTF-8 to recover the original JavaScript text.

Because the converter uses UTF-8 explicitly, it handles modern source text safely instead of assuming plain ASCII.
