Hi,

In the context of localisation, it is probably good to know about
Unicode handling in JavaScript. See for example:
* Axel Rauschmayer: "Unicode and JavaScript" (2013):
<http://2ality.com/2013/09/javascript-unicode.html>.
* Mathias Bynens: "JavaScript has a Unicode problem" (2013):
<https://mathiasbynens.be/notes/javascript-unicode>.
* Mathias Bynens: utf8.js ("robust JavaScript implementation of a UTF-8
encoder/decoder", MIT licence): <https://github.com/mathiasbynens/utf8.js>.
* Mathias Bynens: wtf-8 ("WTF-8 encoder/decoder written in JavaScript",
MIT licence): <https://github.com/mathiasbynens/wtf-8>.

Best regards,

Christophe
