+## This module implements a base64 encoder and decoder.
+##
+## Unstable API.
+##
+## Base64 is an encoding and decoding technique used to convert binary
+## data to an ASCII string format.
+## Each Base64 digit represents exactly 6 bits of data. Three 8-bit
+## bytes (i.e., a total of 24 bits) can therefore be represented by
+## four 6-bit Base64 digits.
+
+##[
+# Basic usage
+## Encoding data
+]##
+
+runnableExamples:
+  let encoded = encode("Hello World")
+  assert encoded == "SGVsbG8gV29ybGQ="
+
+##
+## Apart from strings you can also encode lists of integers or characters:
+##
+
+runnableExamples:
+  let encodedInts = encode([1'u8,2,3])
+  assert encodedInts == "AQID"
+  let encodedChars = encode(['h','e','y'])
+  assert encodedChars == "aGV5"
+
+##[
+## Decoding data
+]##
+
+runnableExamples:
+  let decoded = decode("SGVsbG8gV29ybGQ=")
+  assert decoded == "Hello World"
+
+##[
+## URL Safe Base64
+]##
+
+runnableExamples:
+  assert encode("c\xf7>", safe = true) == "Y_c-"
+  assert encode("c\xf7>", safe = false) == "Y/c+"
