- koito17 2y agoWindows-932 is the text encoding I dread the most. I wish literally everything could use Unicode, but we're not quite there yet. There's a reason encoding-japanese[1] on NPM has nearly 1 million weekly downloads. Unfortunately, I have to use it in one of my React Native applications since the one of servers I speak to returns text encoded as Shift-JIS and Hermes does not implement JavaScript's TextDecoder API. Shift-JIS is marginally better than the Windows code page, but I'd really prefer UTF-8. [1] https://www.npmjs.com/package/encoding-japanese https://www.npmjs.com/package/encoding-japanese
