Non-ascii characters in "ng build" output

When I run ng build I get some non-ASCII characters in the console output:

15:02:51 info: Microsoft.AspNetCore.SpaServices[0]
15:02:51       i ï½¢wdsï½£: webpack output is served from /

I searched for the string i ï½¢wdsï½£ and found it in some other places, e.g. https://www.genuitec.com/forums/topic/project-test-a-is-not-an-angular-cli-project/.

Is it something I should be concerned about? The project runs fine otherwise.

@andrewJames's comment above answers the question, so posting it here as an answer:

ï½¢ is what you get when your console tries to display the UTF-8 ｢ character in a code point such as Windows-1252. ｢ is encoded as 0xEF 0xBD 0xA2 in UTF-8. This becomes the three separate characters you see. And ï½£ is UTF-8 ｣. So overall, it looks to me like it's trying to show you i ｢wds｣. No idea if you should be concerned, tho. – andrewJames CommentedFeb 27, 2020 at 13:33
