In this post we’ll build the relatively same to Elixir’s String.upcase/1 stuff to address fancy UTF8 symbols by their names. The whole codebase contains 119 LOCs. In the end we’ll yield a bundle of modules, providing functions returning the UTF8 symbol given it’s name as a function name. The practical use of this package is beyond the scope of this post, but I am positive there could be many.
