Description

A very simple Base64 encoder and decoder. Text will be encoded/decoded in the corresponding input fields.

This extension will encode and decode Base64 strings.

https://github.com/mymorkkis/b64-chrome-extension

I wrote this extension as I work with Base64 encoded ID's for GraphQL apps. I wanted an extension that would handle encoding and decoding these exclusively without any extra functionality.

Keyboard shortcut to open and close the extension: `Alt(option)+b`.

-----

The ID's I work with are in the format `NodeType:1` and I have two main work flows:
1. Typing (or pasting) an ID to be encoded which I then want to copy.
2. Pasting an encoded ID I would like to know the decoded value of or copy the underlying database ID.

I have set the input boxes to select all text on focus, unless a colon is found in the decoded ID, in which case the database ID will be selected.
