Understanding Base64: The Web’s Universal Language
Ever wondered how to embed an image directly into a webpage without linking to a separate file? The magic behind this is Base64 encoding. At its heart, Base64 is a translation system that converts binary data—the fundamental ones and zeros that form an image—into a text-only representation using a standard set of ASCII characters. This text string, often called a Data URI or Data URL, can be seamlessly included in HTML `` tags or CSS `background-image` properties. By doing so, you make the image part of the document itself, reducing server requests and potentially speeding up page load times for smaller assets.
