Why should I migrate to Charset-Normalizer? =========================================== There is so many reason to migrate your current project. Here are some of them: - Remove ANY license ambiguity/restriction for projects bundling Chardet (even indirectly). - X10 faster than Chardet in average and X6 faster in 99% of the cases AND support 3 times more encoding. - Never return a encoding if not suited for the given decoder. Eg. Never get UnicodeDecodeError! - Actively maintained, open to contributors. - Have the backward compatible function ``detect`` that come from Chardet. - Truly detect the language used in the text. - It is, for the first time, really universal! As there is no specific probe per charset. - The package size is X2~X4 lower than Chardet's (5.0)! (Depends on your arch) - Propose much more options/public kwargs to tweak the detection as you sees fit! - Using static typing to ease your development. - Detect Unicode content better than Chardet or cChardet does. And much more..! What are you waiting for? Upgrade now and give us a feedback. (Even if negative)
