huh. unicode has rules for accent folding but not other diacritics
@codl that’s not the current character folding practices (that technical report was withdrawn and never made it out of the “draft stage”)
for identifiers and such, case folding is a core part of the standard defined in CaseFolding.txt and section 5.18 here: https://www.unicode.org/versions/latest/ch05.pdf
for other string comparison operations, including removal of accents, that’s defined as a part of CLDR (which, if you thought the ordinary unicode website was hard to navigate… the CLDR website is even worse lmao)
@codl the Unicode Collation Algorithm (section 1.1, Multi-Level Comparison) might be a better starting point lol https://www.unicode.org/reports/tr10/#Multi_Level_Comparison
@Lady oh wow you weren't lying about the cldr website
