Lilliput is an object serialization specification like JSON, but binary, with a focus on compactness.

While JSON aims to provide a short, yet human readable object representation, lilliput gives up readability for the sake of the following features:

1. Compact binary representation
2. Fast streaming serialization/deserialization
3. Low-memory streaming usage
4. Zero-copy/alloc wherever possible
5. Good inline compression
6. Type-safety

Specification of the lilliput binary data format.

A serializer and deserializer of the lilliput data format, for serde.

Low-level implementation of encoding/decoding logic for lilliput format.

IEEE-754-compliant float-packing implementation, used in lilliput-core.
