### Differences in API ### Differences in API
To not depend on any external third party libraries and still stay portable and
compact, this implementation is following the ["UTF-8 Everywhere" philosophy](https://utf8everywhere.org/) in that all
`std::string` instances will be interpreted the same as `std::u8string` encoding
wise and as being in UTF-8. The `std::u16string` will be seen as UTF-16 and `std::u32string` will be
seen as unicode codepoints. Depending on the size of `std::wstring` characters, it will handle
`std::wstring` as being UTF-16 (e.g. Windows) or `char32_t` unicode codepoints
(currently all other platforms).
