A Dart package for bi-directional transliteration of Cyrillic script to Latin script and vice versa.
By default, transliterates for the Serbian language. A language flag can be set in order to transliterate to and from Bulgarian, Montenegrin, Macedonian, Mongolian, Russian, Serbian, Tajik, and Ukrainian.
Transliteration is the conversion of a text from one script to another. For instance, a Latin alphabet transliteration of the Serbian phrase "Мој ховеркрафт је пун јегуља" is "Moj hoverkraft je pun jegulja".
This package is based on the Python project cyrillic-transliteration which was originally authored by Open Data Kosovo.

"Під лежачий камінь вода не тече"You can include support for other Cyrillic script alphabets. Follow these steps in order to do so:
- Create a new transliteration dictionary in the mapping.dart_ dictionary.
- Watch out for cases where two consecutive Latin alphabet letters are meant to transliterate into a single Cyrillic script letter. These cases need to be explicitly checked for inside the lat2Cyr() function in transliterator.dart.
- Add test cases inside of cyrtranslit_test.dart.
- Update the documentation in the README.md.
- List yourself as one of the contributors.
Before tagging a release version and deploying to pub.dev:
- Update the
versionproperties in pubspec.yaml.
