I built an embeddable Unicode library with MISRA C conformance

Hello, everyone. I built Unicorn: an embeddable MISRA C:2012 implementation of essential Unicode Algorithms. Unicorn is designed to be fully customizable: you can select which Unicode algorithms and character properties are included or excluded from compilation. You can also exclude Unicode character blocks wholesale for scripts your application does not support. It's perfect for resource constrained devices like microcontrollers and IoT devices. About me: I quit my Big Corp job a few years back to pursue my passion for software development and this is one of my first commercial releases.
