Code:</strong> <a href="https://github.com/nodejs/node/blob/v16.20.0/lib/string_decoder.js">lib/string_decoder.js</a></p> <p>The <code>node:string_decoder</code> module provides an API for decoding <code>Buffer</code> objects into strings in a manner that preserves encoded multi-byte UTF-8 and UTF-16 characters.
