INSPECT & ANALYZE / LOCAL TOOL
Unicode Inspector
Explore code points and bytes.
HOW IT WORKS
Seeing code points and bytes
The inspector walks Unicode characters, showing each code point and its UTF-8 byte length.
Limits to keep in mind
Visually similar characters may have different code points, and combined graphemes can contain several code points.
A PRACTICAL WORKFLOW
Use the result carefully.
01Enter a string to inspect each character and its Unicode code point.
02Run the utility and inspect the complete output.
03Inspect suspicious identifiers one character at a time and compare normalized forms in your application.
COMMON QUESTION
Why can one visible symbol use several entries?
Some graphemes combine a base character with marks, modifiers or joiners.
