URL Encoder/Decoder

Encode and decode URL components

■ 01

What is URL Encoding?

URL encoding converts characters into a format that can be transmitted over the Internet. Special characters are replaced with a '%' followed by two hexadecimal digits.

■ 02

How does it work?

Use URL encoding when you need to include special characters in URL query parameters or when building URLs programmatically. Common use cases include encoding spaces, special characters, and non-ASCII characters.

■ 03

Sample Cases

Covers Space encoding, Special characters, and Query parameters so you can compare common inputs and outputs quickly.
