The template function uses the [`SanitizedAnchorName` logic from Blackfriday](https://github.com/russross/blackfriday#sanitized-anchor-names).
Since the same sanitizing logic is used as the markdown parser, you can determine the ID of a header for linking with anchor tags.
```
{{anchorize "This is a header"}} → "this-is-a-header"
{{anchorize "This is also a header"}} → "this-is-also-a-header"
{{anchorize "main.go"}} → "main-go"
{{anchorize "Article 123"}} → "article-123"
{{anchorize "<- Let's try this, shall we?"}} → "let-s-try-this-shall-we"
{{anchorize "Hello, 世界"}} → "hello-世界"
```
