How to use the tool?
- Place multiple items on multiple lines
- If you enter whole URL (must properly begin with protocol name e.g. http://), the domain name will be Punycode encoded / decoded, the path will be URL encoded /decoded
- The tool uses the IDNA2008 standard, but with Unicode TR#46 Compatibility Processing. Therefore, some (conflicting) characters are encoded using the old IDNA2003 standard
What is Punycode?
