A Developer's Guide to the Image to Base64 Converter

The Image to Base64 Converter is a handy utility for web developers who need to embed images directly into their code. It converts an image file into a Base64-encoded Data URI, which can then be used in HTML, CSS, or JavaScript, eliminating the need for a separate HTTP request for the image.

Features

• Local Conversion: The entire conversion process happens in your browser. Your image is never uploaded to a server, ensuring privacy and speed.
• Image Preview: See a preview of the image you've uploaded.
• Detailed Information: Get useful metadata about your image, including its filename, size, and dimensions.
• Multiple Code Snippets: The tool automatically generates ready-to-use code for different contexts:
  • Data URI: The raw Base64 string.
  • HTML: A complete <img> tag with the Data URI in the src attribute.
  • CSS: A background-image rule with the Data URI in the url() function.
• Easy Copying: Each output format has its own dedicated copy button.

How to Use

1. Select an Image: Click the "Select Image" button and choose an image file from your computer.
2. View the Results: Once the image is processed, the page will update with:
   • A preview of the image and its details.
   • The generated Data URI, HTML tag, and CSS rule in their respective tabs.
3. Copy What You Need: Navigate to the tab with the format you need (Data URI, HTML, or CSS) and click the corresponding "Copy" button.
4. Clear: If you want to convert another image, click the "Clear" button to reset the tool.
