Slug

A slug is a word or a few words that uniquely describe an object. Slugs are often used instead of an id (from a database) due to their readability and portability.

Syntax

Slugs are composed of lowercase alphanumeric characters and hyphens.

abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz1234567890-
  • The first character in a slug must be a letter.
  • The last character in a slug must not be a hyphen.
