// Plain-text data
let uri = 'data:,Hello%2C%20World!';
let parsed = dataUriToBuffer(uri);
console.log(new TextDecoder().decode(parsed.buffer));
// Outputs: 'Hello, World!'

// Base64-encoded data
uri = 'data:text/plain;base64,SGVsbG8sIFdvcmxkIQ%3D%3D';
parsed = dataUriToBuffer(uri);
console.log(new TextDecoder().decode(parsed.buffer));
// Outputs: 'Hello, World!'
