Converting Hex to Base64 in My Next.js Project 🔄

🌐 𝐂𝐨𝐧𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐇𝐞𝐱 𝐭𝐨 𝐁𝐚𝐬𝐞𝟔𝟒 𝐢𝐧 𝐌𝐲 𝐍𝐞𝐱𝐭.𝐣𝐬 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐣𝐞𝐜𝐭 🔄

While implementing 𝗖𝗔𝗣𝗧𝗖𝗛𝗔 in my 𝗡𝗲𝘅𝘁.𝗷𝘀 and 𝗧𝘆𝗽𝗲𝗦𝗰𝗿𝗶𝗽𝘁 project, I faced an intriguing challenge. The random image generated for the 𝗖𝗔𝗣𝗧𝗖𝗛𝗔 was in 𝗛𝗲𝘅 format, but I needed it in 𝗕𝗮𝘀𝗲𝟲𝟰 to display it correctly.

🛠️ Why Convert to 𝗕𝗮𝘀𝗲𝟲𝟰?
𝗕𝗮𝘀𝗲𝟲𝟰 encoding is essential for embedding images directly into HTML or CSS, which simplifies loading and reduces the number of HTTP requests.

🔍 Here's how I tackled the conversion:
Hex to 𝗕𝗮𝘀𝗲𝟲𝟰 Conversion:
I started with a 𝗛𝗲𝘅 string representing my image data.
Then, I converted it to a byte array and finally encoded it to 𝗕𝗮𝘀𝗲𝟲𝟰.

By solving this problem, I not only enhanced the functionality of my 𝗖𝗔𝗣𝗧𝗖𝗛𝗔 but also deepened my understanding of data formats and conversions. 💡

If you're working with image data in web development, I highly recommend familiarizing yourself with these conversions!
