What is URL Parser & Inspector Online?
A URL (Uniform Resource Locator) has a defined structure: `scheme://authority/path?query#fragment`. Understanding each component is essential for web development, API debugging, and security analysis. This parser breaks down any URL instantly so you can inspect every part: protocol, subdomain, domain, TLD, port, pathname segments, and all query parameters as key-value pairs.

What is the difference between a URL, URI, and URN?
A URI (Uniform Resource Identifier) is a general identifier. A URL is a URI that specifies location and access method. A URN is a URI that names a resource without specifying how to access it.
Why does the URL bar sometimes encode characters?
Browsers percent-encode characters that are unsafe in URLs (like spaces → %20). This is handled automatically but can cause confusion when debugging API requests.
