Design

This library will always returns clean output from any Unicode string containing only the following ASCII characters:

• numbers: 0-9
• small letters: a-z
• big letters: A-Z (only if you set Lowercase to false)
• minus sign: -
• underscore: _

Minus sign and underscore characters will never appear at the beginning or the end of the returned string.

Thanks to context-insensitive transliteration of Unicode characters to ASCII output returned string is safe for URL slugs and filenames.

Requests or bugs?

If your language is missing you could add it in languages_substitution.go file.

In case of missing proper Unicode characters transliteration to ASCII you could add them to underlying library: .
