Same here, I need something like this for my Lisp interpreter. I was thinking about Simple Dynamic Strings but I like this better. https://github.com/willcipri

  I used https://github.com/kumkee/utf8 https://github.com/kumkee/utf8 (along with a bit of hacking) in my toy scheme interpreter to get Unicode strings. Had to adapt some script I found to generate character class lookup functions to make it fully work IIRC and still need to plug-in some sort of copy on write mechanism since the strings are managed in a shared buffer but other than that it works pretty well…if you’re into the unicorn strings that is.

It follows the same principle as SDS (i.e user-facing type is char*) but is much faster (see bench) and frankly nicer to read through. Not as feature complete, though.*
