base64 is a robust base64 encoderdecoder that is fully compatible with atob() and btoa() , written in JavaScript The base64-encoding and -decoding algorithms Compatibility wrapper to replace the orphaned package New applications should use base64 encoders from 'jsonlite' or 'openssl' or 'base64enc'
