🧠 HOW URL DECODING WORKS EXPLAINER
1

Percent-encoded strings use %HH sequences where HH is the hex value of a byte.

2

This decoder calls decodeURIComponent() which reverses the encoding — %20 → space, %26 → &, %3F → ?

3

Multi-byte sequences like %C3%A9 are reassembled into UTF-8 characters (é in this case).

4

If the decoded string is a valid URL, the tool also breaks it into components: protocol, host, path, and query parameters.
