What is URL Encoding? - URL Encode/Decode Explained - Web Development Tutorial

Any Web Developer should know what URL Encoding is and why we need to use it - in this video I'll be explaining exactly that.

URL Encoding is a way we can safely transfer "unsafe" characters in the URL - things like special characters and reserved characters. It's as simple as that!

By watching the video for 6 am, I solved my problem. Even ChatGPT was wrong in its solution. 
Long story short, browser do encoding and decodring out of the box for you as long as it is the URL. You do not have to encode anything. If you are using jQuery etc, then you may have to encode.
