Transform URL text safely for transport and query usage.
Why URL encoding matters
URL encoding replaces reserved and unsafe characters with percent-encoded sequences. This ensures URLs are interpreted consistently by browsers and servers.
URL vs URL component
Encode a full URL when you need to preserve URL structure. Encode a component when you are placing individual values in query parameters or path segments.
When to decode
Use decode mode when you receive encoded parameters and need readable text for debugging, logging, or data processing.
