What is URL Encoding?
URL Encoding (also called percent-encoding) is a mechanism for encoding special characters in URLs. Characters such as spaces, accents and symbols are replaced by a percent sign followed by two hexadecimal digits (%20 for space).
It is essential when building query strings, HTML forms and REST APIs to ensure data is transmitted correctly without ambiguity.
