Technical Architecture & Execution Mechanics
RFC 3986 Percent-Encoding Specification
Characters outside the unreserved set [A-Za-z0-9-_.~] are converted to UTF-8 byte sequences, with each byte represented by a percent sign followed by two hexadecimal digits.
Encoded_URL = encodeURIComponent(Raw_String)Technical Limitations & Operational Constraints
- Malformed percent-encoded strings with incomplete hex pairs (e.g. '%2') will flag a URIError.
Key Specifications & Capabilities
- RFC 3986 & RFC 1738 Standard – Supports standard percent-encoding and + for spaces
- Full URI & Component Modes – Toggle encodeURI vs encodeURIComponent
- Live Bidirectional Processing – Updates output in real time
- 100% In-Browser Privacy – URL parameters and tokens never leave your device
Frequently Asked Questions & Answers
What is the difference between encodeURI and encodeURIComponent?
encodeURI preserves URL structure delimiters (/?:@&=+$#), while encodeURIComponent encodes everything except alphanumeric characters and -_.!~*'().
Are my files uploaded, analyzed, or stored on NexVaani servers?
Where supported, tool inputs and files are processed locally inside your web browser using WebAssembly and HTML5 Canvas. Your files are not uploaded to NexVaani file-processing servers.
