I don't think I wrote it as a library yet, but the idea is
pretty simple: they all start with "data:" so you look for that.
Then there's a type after that, so you read the string until
the next ; character. It will be like image/png or image/jpeg.
Then there's the semicolon and the string "base64,".
After that, the rest of the string is base64 data.
```
import std.base64;
ubyte[] data = Base64.decode(rest_of_string);
```
And now that you have the data you can write it to a file:
⅞iii> import std.file;
std.file.write("filename.png", data);
```
And that should make the file you want.
Thank Adam.

How do I convert a Base64 image url string to a png/jpg image file?
So I have a base64 image url string and I'm trying to generate a png,jpg image file from it. I'm able to decode it to a buffer but the trouble is getting it from buffer to an actual image file. Any library function combination I can use?
