A dependency-free JavaScript library that converts strings into URL-friendly slugs, transliterating foreign symbols to their English equivalents. It works in browsers and CommonJS/AMD module loaders and supports customizable separators, locale-specific transliterations, and an extensible character map.

Use cases

• generate url slugs from article titles
• convert a string to a slug for seo-friendly urls
• slugify filenames or ids
• transliterate accented characters to ascii
• create clean urls from user input
• customize slug separator character

When to choose

• you need a tiny, zero-dependency slug generator in JavaScript
• you need browser and Node.js support
• you need locale-aware transliteration or an extensible character map

When to avoid

• you need slug generation in a non-JavaScript language
• you need full Unicode-to-ASCII transliteration beyond a character map
• you need framework-level routing or URL rewriting, not just string conversion
