Usage

You can either transform runes to text, or text to runes.

Latin text to runes:

import { lettersToRunes } from 'staveless-futhark'

// From Hög runestone 12.
const result = lettersToRunes('lit rita stin þina')

console.log(result) // ⸌ᛁ⸍:⡄ᛁ⸍⸝:╵⸍ᛁ⸜:וᛁ⸜⸝

Runes to latin text:

import { runesToLetters } from 'staveless-futhark'

const result = runesToLetters('⸌ᛁ⸍:⡄ᛁ⸍⸝:╵⸍ᛁ⸜:וᛁ⸜⸝')

console.log(result) // lit Rita stin þina

About Staveless Futhark

Staveless runes were simplification of Younger Futhark, a runic alphabet of the viking age. In order to create the staveless runes, vertical marks (or staves) were dropped from individual runes.
