Understanding decodeURI( )

decodeURI() is primarily used to decode the URIs that have been encoded by using the encodeURI() method. When processing user input that involves encoded URIs or working with data acquired from external sources, it is required to do so.

Syntax:

decodeURI(encodedURI: string): string

When working with web applications in TypeScript, you may encounter situations where you need to decode Uniform Resource Identifiers (URIs) to handle special characters or extract information from encoded URLs. TypeScript, being a superset of JavaScript, provides access to native JavaScript functions for URI decoding.
