8-bit ASCII vs Multi-Byte UTF-8

Classic ASCII only needs a single 8-bit byte per character because it covers just 128 symbols. UTF-8 extends this with a variable-width scheme: each character uses between 1 and 4 bytes depending on its Unicode code point, while staying fully backward-compatible with ASCII.

A character like A still encodes as a single byte, but é needs 2 bytes, 日 needs 3, and an emoji like 🚀 needs 4. This tool uses the browser's TextEncoder to expand every character correctly, regardless of its byte width.
