# is-unicode-supported
> Detect whether the terminal supports Unicode
This can be useful to decide whether to use Unicode characters or fallback ASCII characters in command-line output.
Note that the check is quite naive. It just assumes all non-Windows terminals support Unicode and hard-codes which Windows terminals that do support Unicode. However, I have been using this logic in some popular packages for years without problems.
## Install
```
$ npm install is-unicode-supported
```
## Usage
```js
import isUnicodeSupported from 'is-unicode-supported';
isUnicodeSupported();
//=> true
```
## API
### isUnicodeSupported()
Returns a `boolean` for whether the terminal supports Unicode.
