As a software engineer, I found myself using Base64 conversion tools almost every day. Whether it was for embedding images directly into CSS, sending files through text-based protocols, or simply for data encoding, it was a constant part of my workflow.

However, I noticed a gap. I couldn't find a single tool that allowed me to quickly edit a file—like cropping an image or adjusting its quality—and then immediately convert it to Base64 without multiple steps or different applications. The process was always a bit clunky: edit here, save there, then upload somewhere else to convert.

That's why I created EditToBase64.com.

This website was born out of a personal need for a more streamlined, efficient, and private tool. My goal was to build a comprehensive solution where you could not only convert files to and from Base64 but also make necessary edits on the fly, all in one place. And most importantly, I wanted to ensure it was completely private, with all processing happening directly in your browser. No file uploads, no server-side storage—just a fast, secure, and powerful tool to make your development workflow a little bit easier.

I hope you find it as useful as I do.
