encdec – BaseXX Encoding and Decoding in JavaScript

Ian — Fri, 03 Jun 2011 22:13:08 +0000

Recently, while hacking around with some Python code I came up with a Gist for base58 encoding and decoding. Now, just for fun, I thought
it would be a good idea / exercise to port this over to JavaScript. This gave rise to encdec – a small base encoding / decoding library.

your own base alphabet allowing you to do base16, base32 or base-whatever-you-like encoding.

Please have a play with it and let me know what you think
