Base64 Encoder/Decoder Extension

Base64 Encoder/Decoder Extension

Description
This is a browser extension that encodes and decodes media to and from Base64. It was created to help developers who want to use Base64 data strings instead of image or audio files, but the user interface is simple enough for anyone to use. Don't worry! This also supports encoding and decoding text strings. It is much faster and more convenient to use this extension rather than uploading your local files to a server for processing.

**Please note**
1. This project is limited to converting media supported by the Base64 standard
2. Large files will take several seconds to process
3. This extension stores data in the following way:
\t- It saves the last entered base64 string so the user does not need to
re-enter it when the extension opens back up
\t- The string is stored on the **user's computer** using the
chrome.storage API

Features Overview
- Select a file from your computer and encode it to a Base 64 string
- Previews supported files
- Convert a Base 64 string to the correct file type
\t- Download the file in any format

Supported File Types
This extension supports converting the following file types (several examples listed):

- Images
\t- png
\t- jpeg
\t- gif
\t- bmp
\t- tiff (can't be displayed)

\t- ogg
\t- wav

- Text

James Koss (ID: 000000f879d5ffd0) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 03/29/2020 Excellent work by the author. It's open-source, so I modified it to just be a simple base64 text converter with a bit more automation for my liking. Review the README and code here if you want: https://github.com/phuein/Base-64-Extension

Stephen S (ID: 0000003b5b14a92a) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 01/21/2018 Really good. It works well, and I tried some other ones too. This one is definitely the most visually appealing out of all of them plus it has great functionality.
