What is the zero-width joiner?

A zero-width joiner is a special Unicode character that is used to join two characters together in a way that they are displayed as a single unit. This can be useful for creating ligatures or combining characters in certain languages. The zero-width joiner itself is invisible, but it affects the way the characters are displayed on the screen.
