About Image to Base64
Base64 is an encoding scheme that converts binary data (like images) into ASCII text strings. This is useful for embedding small images directly into HTML, CSS, or JSON files to reduce HTTP requests.
HTML Embed
<img src="data:image...">
Reduces page load time for small icons/logos.
CSS Background
background: url('data:...')
Keep all assets in a single CSS file.
JSON Data
{"image": "data:image..."}
Easily transmit image data via APIs.
Performance Note
Base64 strings are approximately 33% larger than original binary files. It is recommended to use Base64 only for small images (under 10KB-50KB). For larger images, standard file serving is more efficient.
