brew install simdutf
v9.0.0
Apache-2.0 OR MIT
C++ library for fast Unicode validation and conversion using SIMD instructions.
Why you might care
Achieves gigabyte-per-second Unicode transcoding through vectorized operations, making it ideal for high-throughput text processing in language runtimes and browsers. Used by Node.js, Bun, and Chromium, it's faster than standard library implementations and useful as a build dependency for projects handling large text volumes.
