+# utf8proc
+[![CI](https://github.com/NanoComp/meep/actions/workflows/build-ci.yml/badge.svg)](https://github.com/JuliaStrings/utf8proc/actions/workflows/build-ci.yml)
+[![AppVeyor status](https://ci.appveyor.com/api/projects/status/ivaa0v6ikxrmm5r6?svg=true)](https://ci.appveyor.com/project/StevenGJohnson/utf8proc)
+
+[utf8proc](http://juliastrings.github.io/utf8proc/) is a small, clean C
+library that provides Unicode normalization, case-folding, and other
+operations for data in the [UTF-8
+encoding](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UTF-8).  It was [initially
+developed](http://www.public-software-group.org/utf8proc) by Jan
+Behrens and the rest of the [Public Software
+Group](http://www.public-software-group.org/), who deserve *nearly all
+of the credit* for this package.  With the blessing of the Public
+Software Group, the [Julia developers](http://julialang.org/) have
+taken over development of utf8proc, since the original developers have
+moved to other projects.
+
+(utf8proc is used for basic Unicode
+support in the [Julia language](http://julialang.org/), and the Julia
+developers became involved because they wanted to add Unicode 7 support and other features.)
+
+(The original utf8proc package also includes Ruby and PostgreSQL plug-ins.
+We removed those from utf8proc in order to focus exclusively on the C
+library for the time being, but plan to add them back in or release them as separate packages.)
+
+The utf8proc package is licensed under the
+free/open-source [MIT "expat"
+license](http://opensource.org/licenses/MIT) (plus certain Unicode
+data governed by the similarly permissive [Unicode data
+license](http://www.unicode.org/copyright.html#Exhibit1)); please see
+the included `LICENSE.md` file for more detailed information.
+
+## Quick Start
+
+Typical users should download a [utf8proc release](http://juliastrings.github.io/utf8proc/releases/) rather than cloning directly from github.
+
+For compilation of the C library, run `make`.  You can also install the library and header file with `make install` (by default into `/usr/local/lib` and `/usr/local/bin`, but this can be changed by `make prefix=/some/dir`).  `make check` runs some tests, and `make clean` deletes all of the generated files.
+
+Alternatively, you can compile with `cmake`, e.g. by
+```sh
+mkdir build
+cmake -S . -B build
+cmake --build build
+```
+
+### Using other compilers
+The included `Makefile` supports GNU/Linux flavors and MacOS with `gcc`-like compilers; Windows users will typically use `cmake`.
+
+For other Unix-like systems and other compilers, you may need to pass modified settings to `make` in order to use the correct compilation flags for building shared libraries on your system.
+
+For HP-UX with HP's `aCC` compiler and GNU Make (installed as `gmake`), you can compile with
+```
+gmake CC=/opt/aCC/bin/aCC CFLAGS="+O2" PICFLAG="+z" C99FLAG="-Ae" WCFLAGS="+w" LDFLAG_SHARED="-b" SOFLAG="-Wl,+h"
+```
+To run `gmake install` you will need GNU coreutils for the `install` command, and you may want to pass `prefix=/opt libdir=/opt/lib/hpux32` or similar to change the installation location.
+
+## General Information
+
+The C library is found in this directory after successful compilation
+and is named `libutf8proc.a` (for the static library) and
+`libutf8proc.so` (for the dynamic library).
+
+The Unicode version supported is 15.1.0.
+
+For Unicode normalizations, the following options are used:
+
+* Normalization Form C:  `STABLE`, `COMPOSE`
+* Normalization Form D:  `STABLE`, `DECOMPOSE`
+* Normalization Form KC: `STABLE`, `COMPOSE`, `COMPAT`
+* Normalization Form KD: `STABLE`, `DECOMPOSE`, `COMPAT`
+
+## C Library
+
+The documentation for the C library is found in the `utf8proc.h` header file.
+`utf8proc_map` is function you will most likely be using for mapping UTF-8
+strings, unless you want to allocate memory yourself.
