Frequently Asked Questions
🔒 Are tokens transmitted or stored on Developer Hut databases?▼
No. Tokens are split and decoded entirely locally in the client-side JavaScript execution heap. Your security tokens never leave your web browser and are not transmitted over any API channels.
⚙️ How is URL-safe Base64 encoding handled?▼
Standard JWT tokens use Base64URL notation (with characters `-` and `_` replacing `+` and `/`, and padding removed). Our decoder reconstructs the canonical padding and character format to decode successfully.
🕒 Does the expiry calculation support different local timezones?▼
The validation state parses UTC Epoch Unix seconds (`exp`), comparing it with standard UTC timestamps, which guarantees timezone-independent, absolute check values.
