Clean slugs for Spanish titles
Accents, ñ and opening punctuation end up as broken URLs. Turn them into a readable slug.
Write slugify(title). Strip accents (á becomes a, ñ becomes n, ü becomes u), lowercase everything, replace any run of characters that are not letters a-z or digits with a single hyphen, and trim hyphens from both ends.
Example: '¿Qué es la IA local?' gives 'que-es-la-ia-local'.
Challenges 0/4
- '¿Qué es la IA local?' gives 'que-es-la-ia-local'
- Converts ñ and accents, keeps numbers
- Collapses repeated separators and trims the ends
- Removes the diaeresis and symbols
function slugify(title) {
// 1. normalize('NFD') and drop the combining marks
// 2. lowercase, 3. non-alphanumerics to '-', 4. trim hyphens
return title.toLowerCase().replace(/ /g, '-');
}
console.log(slugify('¿Qué es la IA local?'));Console output appears here (console.log).
