What does Base64 Decoder do?

Decode Base64 into readable UTF-8 text. The workspace keeps the input and result together, making it easy to check the change before you use it elsewhere.

For example, you can decode Base64 into readable UTF-8 text when checking a value copied from logs.

Base64 Decoder stays deliberately simple: add the content, run the tool, and review the result.

Tips for a better result
