When Should You Use Base64 Images?
Base64 encoding converts binary image data into ASCII strings. Embedding these strings directly into your HTML or CSS eliminates extra HTTP roundtrips, making it ideal for small UI icons, logos, email signatures, and offline web apps.
* Note: Base64 strings are approximately 33% larger in byte size than raw binary images. For large photos, serving external WebP files remains recommended.
