What is a UTF-8 Decoder?
A UTF-8 Decoder is a tool that converts a string of UTF-8 encoded characters (often seen as percent-encoding in URLs, like `%E2%9C%93`) back into its original, human-readable text. UTF-8 is the dominant character encoding for the World Wide Web, and this tool helps in reversing its encoded representation.
Why Use Our UTF-8 Decoder?
- Web Development: To decode URL parameters or other web data that has been UTF-8 encoded.
- Data Analysis: To read and understand text data from different systems that might be in a UTF-8 encoded format.
- Debugging: To inspect the actual content of a UTF-8 encoded string to ensure it's correct.
- Internationalization: To correctly interpret text that contains characters from different languages.
