Removes accents from strings.
|
|
|
|
- Use `String.prototype.normalize()` to convert the string to a normalized Unicode format.
|
|
- Use `String.prototype.replace()` to replace diacritical marks in the given Unicode range by empty strings.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
const removeAccents = str =>
|
|
str.normalize('NFD').replace(/[\u0300-\u036f]/g, '');
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
removeAccents('Antoine de Saint-Exupéry'); // 'Antoine de Saint-Exupery'
|
|
```
