# UnicodeNext

[![Build Status](https://github.com/c42f/UnicodeNext.jl/actions/workflows/CI.yml/badge.svg?branch=main)](https://github.com/c42f/UnicodeNext.jl/actions/workflows/CI.yml?query=branch%3Amain)

A unicode library which can be upgraded to the latest unicode rules, even on

old Julia versions. Why do this? I want to resolve some JuliaSyntax

compatibility issues mentioned at

https://github.com/JuliaLang/JuliaSyntax.jl/pull/381

The interface here is an amalgamation of Julia's `Unicode` stdlib and the

functions from Base's strings/unicode.jl. The implementation is a Julia port of

the C library [utf8proc](https://github.com/JuliaStrings/utf8proc) which has

traditionally powered Base's unicode functionality.

Ideally I (Claire) hope this library might become the implementation of the

Unicode stdlib and the Base functions from strings/unicode.jl, such as

`islowercase()`, etc. But we'd need to figure out the implications of trying to

make this upgradable without breaking how it's integrated into the Julia

sysimage.
