thank you all for supporting decancer!!! i love you all <3 ❤️

v1.6.0

decancer v1.6.0 is here! 🥳

• added thousands of new codepoints and fixed lots of mistranslations, bringing the grand total of supported unicode codepoints to 9,419!!!

• added optional no_std support! limiting the library to just cure_char, but it also means that you can use decancer without depending on the Rust standard library! just add this in your Config.toml:

decancer = { version = "1.6", default-features = false }

• added optional serde support! which means that you can serialize/deserialize types (like JSON) while also curing the input at the same time! just add this in your Config.toml:

decancer = { version = "1.6", features = ["serde"] }

read the documentation for more details.

thank you all for supporting decancer!!! ❤️

v1.5.5

decancer v1.5.5:

• added and optimized the removal of diacritics. (helps with zalgo text removal)
• added 682 more unicode confusables.
• fixed some incorrect translations.
• improved documentation a bit.

v1.5.4

After several weeks of pain and constantly staring at random unicode characters for hours, decancer v1.5.4 is here!

Notable changes in this update:

• breaking[native]: removed support for UTF-16 characters, sorry windows native developers :(
• fix: fixed a dangerous vulnerability (#4) - so if you don't want for your app to hang whenever someone inputs “ˑ” (U+02D1), please update to version v1.5.4!
• feat: added 1,452 more confusables! which means that the library now supports 6,071 confusables!
• feat[core]: added decancer::cure_char to cure a single char! as suggested by #4.
• feat[native]: added decancer_cure_char to cure a single uint32_t! as suggested by #4.
• optimized binary size by implementing several optimizing measures!

As always, thank you all for supporting decancer, love you all ❤️
