What is Binary to Text?

Binary is the fundamental language of computers. This converter shows text as 0s and 1s, useful for educational purposes and low-level debugging.

How it works

We iterate through each character, get its charCode, and format as an 8-digit binary string. Decoding parses groups of 8 bits back to characters.
