Code Review
This pull request is an excellent addition, creating a comprehensive and well-structured documentation site for the library. The use of Jekyll with the 'Just the Docs' theme is a great choice, and the content covers all essential aspects from getting started to API references and performance. My review focuses primarily on improving the clarity and correctness of the code examples across the documentation. Many examples for functions that handle special characters were not fully demonstrative, and I've provided suggestions to make them more illustrative for users. I've also included a couple of recommendations for the Gemfile to enhance environment consistency.
| StringManipulation::utf8Ansi('Munchen'); | ||
| // Output: Munchen | ||
|
|
||
| StringManipulation::utf8Ansi('Strasse'); | ||
| // Output: Strasse (ss is converted) |

These examples for German characters don't contain any characters that would be converted. Here are some more illustrative examples that show the function in action.
| StringManipulation::utf8Ansi('Munchen'); | |
| // Output: Munchen | |
| StringManipulation::utf8Ansi('Strasse'); | |
| // Output: Strasse (ss is converted) | |
| StringManipulation::utf8Ansi('München'); | |
| // Output: Munchen | |
| StringManipulation::utf8Ansi('Straße'); | |
| // Output: Strasse (ss is converted) |
| StringManipulation::utf8Ansi('francais'); | ||
| // Output: francais | ||
|
|
||
| StringManipulation::utf8Ansi('cafe'); | ||
| // Output: cafe |

These examples for French characters are not demonstrating the conversion. Here are some improved examples.
| StringManipulation::utf8Ansi('francais'); | |
| // Output: francais | |
| StringManipulation::utf8Ansi('cafe'); | |
| // Output: cafe | |
| StringManipulation::utf8Ansi('français'); | |
| // Output: francais | |
| StringManipulation::utf8Ansi('café'); | |
| // Output: cafe |

This table of character conversions is not very helpful as the input and output are identical. It would be more illustrative to show examples of actual conversions.

This example would better demonstrate the function if the input string contained a UTF-8 character that gets converted, such as Über.
| $result = StringManipulation::utf8Ansi('Uber'); | |
| echo $result; // Output: Uber | |
| $result = StringManipulation::utf8Ansi('Über'); | |
| echo $result; // Output: Uber |
| $result = StringManipulation::removeAccents('Creme Brulee'); | ||
| echo $result; // Output: Creme Brulee |
There was a problem hiding this comment.
This example doesn't demonstrate the function's purpose as the input string has no accents. Consider using an accented string like Crème Brûlée to clearly show what the function does.
| $result = StringManipulation::removeAccents('Creme Brulee'); | |
| echo $result; // Output: Creme Brulee | |
| $result = StringManipulation::removeAccents('Crème Brûlée'); | |
| echo $result; // Output: Creme Brulee |
|

To better demonstrate the library's capabilities with special characters, consider using an accented string in this example, like Café Crème Brûlée.
| 'Cafe Creme Brulee', | |
| 'Café Crème Brûlée', |

To better demonstrate the searchWords function, consider using an input string with accents and special characters.
| $userInput = "Cafe Creme Brulee - Munchen"; | |
| $userInput = "Café Crème Brûlée - München"; |

This example for removeAccents would be more effective at demonstrating its purpose if the input string contained accented characters.
| $normalised = StringManipulation::removeAccents('Creme Brulee'); | |
| // Output: 'Creme Brulee' | |
| $normalised = StringManipulation::removeAccents('Crème Brûlée'); | |

Great work on setting up the Gemfile! I have a couple of suggestions to improve consistency between your local development environment and the GitHub Pages build environment:
- Specify Ruby Version: It's a good practice to add a
rubyversion declaration. This ensures all developers and the CI environment use the same Ruby version, preventing potential dependency mismatches. - Pin Theme Version: Your
_config.ymlpins thejust-the-docstheme to versionv0.10.1. To ensure local builds are identical to the deployed site, it's best to pin the gem to the same version here.
ruby "3.1.2" # Please adjust to match your GitHub Actions workflow version

gem "jekyll", "~> 4.3"

Similar to the above, using an accented character in this example would better demonstrate the function and the benefit of caching.
| $result2 = StringManipulation::removeAccents('Munchen'); | |
| $result2 = StringManipulation::removeAccents('München'); |

Note: The documentation consistently uses British English spelling (e.g., "optimisation", "normalise", "standardise") throughout. While this is not incorrect, American English spelling is more common in technical documentation. Consider standardizing to American English for broader consistency with common programming conventions.
