Text to Slug Converter

Turn any title or sentence into a clean URL slug.

This tool runs entirely in your browser. Your files are never uploaded to a server.

What this converter does

Lowercases text, applies Unicode NFD decomposition, removes combining marks U+0300–U+036F, replaces every run outside ASCII a–z and 0–9 with one hyphen, then trims edge hyphens.

Examples

`My Café Menu!` becomes `my-cafe-menu`. Copy the live output or reset the input. Accented Latin letters that decompose usually lose their mark, while characters such as ß, non-Latin scripts, and emoji are replaced rather than transliterated.

Limits

The result is an ASCII-style path segment, not a complete URL. The tool does not check route uniqueness, reserved words, length, redirects, percent encoding, locale-aware Turkish casing, or an existing site's slug policy. An input with no retained ASCII letters or digits produces an empty result.

Privacy

Conversion is local and text is not uploaded.

Frequently Asked Questions

How are accented characters handled?
Accents are stripped so that, for example, 'café' becomes 'cafe' in the slug.
What happens to spaces and punctuation?
Spaces and any non-alphanumeric characters are replaced with a single hyphen, and leading/trailing hyphens are trimmed.
Is the output always lowercase?
Yes, slugs are converted to lowercase, which is the standard convention for URLs.
