A Data URL is a way to embed small files directly into HTML or CSS, formatted as data:[MIME type];base64,[encoded data]. It reduces HTTP requests and is great for small icons and images.
Best for small images (<5KB), SVG icons, font files, etc. They reduce page HTTP requests and speed up loading of small assets. Not suitable for large files as they bloat HTML size.
Completely secure. All file processing happens locally in your browser. Files are never uploaded to any server.
All common image formats (PNG, JPG, GIF, SVG, WebP, BMP, ICO), plus text files, CSS, JS, and font files.
No technical limit, but we recommend files under 100KB. Oversized Data URLs bloat HTML/CSS and hurt performance.
