How the Slug Generator works

The generator converts your text into a URL-safe slug by: lowercasing all letters, replacing spaces and special characters with hyphens (or underscores), removing accents and diacritics, stripping characters that are not alphanumeric, and trimming leading/trailing separators. The result is a clean, readable URL segment suitable for blog posts, pages, and APIs.
