Is there a page where you can paste a string with unknown-to-you Unicode characters and it explains them all?
Stuff like invisible typographical spaces, zero width stuff, emoji joiners, RTL, emoji variant selectors, math symbols used as “fonts,” control characters, etc.? Not just listing stuff, but also explaining them in friendly terms, and maybe adding a little history?
(Because I want to build one if that doesn’t exist. I can see it being useful for debugging, but also education.)
