Mojo::Util - Portable utility functions

  use Mojo::Util qw(b64_encode url_escape url_unescape);
  my $str = 'test=23';
  my $escaped = url_escape $str;
  say url_unescape $escaped;
  say b64_encode $escaped, '';

Mojo::Util provides portable utility functions for Mojo.

Mojo::Util implements the following functions, which can be imported individually.

  camelize 'foo_bar';
  # "FooBar::Baz"
