Byte-Length
Calculate the real byte length of any string.
Why
In node many will use Buffer.byteLength, however including the entire buffer shim in the browser just for getting the byte length of a string is not very conservative.
Installation
npm install byte-length
Example
import { byteLength } from "byte-length";
byteLength("hello"); //-> 5
byteLength("😀"); //-> 4
byteLength("fullwidth characters"); //-> 60
