Is my data uploaded?+
No. This tool is designed to run locally in your browser.
Do I need an account?+
No signup is required for CodeVella tools.
Is the selected file uploaded?+
No. The file is read by your browser and converted locally. Large files may create very long Base64 output and use more memory.

Base64 is the encoded file content. A data URL includes the MIME type prefix, making it ready to embed in HTML, CSS, or JSON when appropriate.
