ELI5: punnycode

2 points · submitted Feb 2023 by u/ychaouche · Other

It would be nice if someone would take an example string and explain how it is encoded to punycode,

and vice versa

(how to decode)

The RFC (3492)

is a little intimidating to read and fully understand.

The RFC provides both encoding and decoding psudocode starting from page 11.
