Description

I think we could provide simple typedefs in <boost/spirit/home/x3/numeric/bool.hpp>

EDIT: bool_policies must be updated too; however there's some hard-coded string literals in bool_policies.hpp which simply do not match the unicode char type

Contributor guide

Research direction
Examine the existing bool policies in boost/spirit/home/x3/numeric/bool policies.hpp and identify where string literals are hard coded. Determine how to make them work with unicode character types (e.g., char32 t) and propose a solution that provides typedefs and updates the policies accordingly. Look for prior art in the X3 library for unicode support.
