`make(value)` converts the given value to a `string`.

external fromCharCode : int -> t = "String.fromCharCode"
[@@bs.val]
(**
`fromCharCode(n)` creates a `string` containing the character corresponding to
that number; `n` ranges from 0 to 65535.If out of range, the lower 16 bits of
the value are used. Thus, `fromCharCode(0x1F63A)` gives the same result as
`fromCharCode(0xF63A)`.
See [`String.fromCharCode`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/String/fromCharCode)
on MDN.
```res example
Js.String2.fromCharCode(65) == "A"
Js.String2.fromCharCode(0x3c8) == `ψ`
Js.String2.fromCharCode(0xd55c) == `한`
Js.String2.fromCharCode(-64568) == `ψ`

external fromCodePoint : int -> t = "String.fromCodePoint"
[@@bs.val]
(**
`fromCodePoint(n)` creates a `string` containing the character corresponding to
that numeric code point. If the number is not a valid code point, it raises
`RangeError`. Thus, `fromCodePoint(0x1F63A)` will produce a correct value,
unlike `fromCharCode(0x1F63A)`, and `fromCodePoint(-5)` will raise a
`RangeError`.
See [`String.fromCodePoint`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/String/fromCodePoint)

`get(s, n)` returns as a `string` the character at the given index number. If

function may be modified to return `option(string)`.
```res example

first 16-bit value at that position in the string.

`charCodeAt(s, n)` returns the character code at position `n` in string `s`;
the result is in the range 0-65535, unlke `codePointAt`, so it will not work
correctly for characters with code points greater than or equal to 0x10000. The
return type is `float` because this function returns NaN if `n` is less than
zero or greater than the length of the string.

`None`.

external substr : t -> from:int -> t = "substr"
[@@bs.send]
(**
`substr(str, ~from:n)` returns the substring of `str` from position `n` to the
end of the string.
- If `n` is less than zero, the starting position is the length of `str - n`.
- If `n` is greater than or equal to the length of `str`, returns the empty string.
JavaScript’s `String.substr()` is a legacy function. When possible, use
`substring()` instead.
See [`String.substr`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/String/substr)

`substrAtMost(str, ~from: pos, ~length: n)` returns the substring of `str` of

- If `pos` is less than zero, the starting position is the length of `str - pos`.
- If `pos` is greater than or equal to the length of `str`, returns the empty string.

`substring(str, ~from: start, ~to_: finish)` returns characters `start` up to

- If `start` is less than zero, it is treated as zero.
- If `finish` is zero or negative, the empty string is returned.
- If `start` is greater than `finish`, the `start` and `finish` points are swapped.

`toLowerCase(str)` converts `str` to lower case using the locale-insensitive

give different results depending upon context, for example with the Greek
letter sigma, which has two different lower case forms; one when it is the last
character in a string and another when it is not.
