[![NPM Version](https://img.shields.io/npm/v/unicode-tex-character-converter?style=for-the-badge&logo=npm&color=CC3534)](https://www.npmjs.com/package/unicode-tex-character-converter)

This TypeScript library facilitates the conversion among Unicode characters, their codepoints, and corresponding LaTeX/BibTeX commands. For instance:

- `α` -> `U+03B1`

- `α` -> `\textalpha`

- `U+03B1` -> `α`

- `U+03B1` -> `\textalpha`.

- `\textalpha` -> `α`

- `\textalpha` -> `U+03B1`

Initially, this library was designed to assist with the conversion of content within BibTeX files. However, its utility extends to any scenario requiring conversion between Unicode and LaTeX/BibTeX Unicode character commands.
