How URL Encoder / Decoder works
URL encoding replaces reserved or unsafe characters with percent-encoded byte values. It prevents spaces, ampersands, question marks, Unicode characters, and other input from being confused with URL structure.
The tool uses browser-native URI encoding and decoding rules. Encoding produces percent sequences suitable for a URL component, while decoding converts valid sequences back to readable characters without requesting the destination address.
An entire URL and an individual query value do not always use identical encoding rules. Avoid decoding untrusted input repeatedly, preserve structural separators when needed, and use URLSearchParams when building production query strings.
