What is URL encoding?
URL encoding converts special characters into a format that can be safely transmitted over the internet. Spaces become %20, & becomes %26, etc.
When do I need URL encoding?
Use URL encoding when passing data in URLs, especially for query parameters with spaces, special characters, or non-ASCII text.
What's the difference between encode and decode?
Encoding converts normal text to URL-safe format (with % symbols). Decoding reverses this process, converting %XX back to original characters.
