Frequently asked questions

What does it remove?

Diacritics — accents, umlauts, tildes and cedillas — converting letters like é, ñ and ü to e, n and u.

Does it handle letters like ø and ß?

With the option enabled, yes — it also maps special letters such as ø→o, ß→ss and æ→ae that don't decompose automatically.

Why would I need this?

For clean URL slugs, safe filenames and consistent search or sorting keys, where non-ASCII characters cause problems.
