Rust port of extremely fast simdjson JSON parser with [Serde][serde] compatibility.
simd-json is a Rust port of the simdjson c++ library. It follows most of the design closely with a few exceptions to make it better fit into the Rust ecosystem. Goals
The goal of the Rust port of simdjson is not to create a one-to-one copy, but to integrate the principles of the C++ library into a Rust library that plays well with the Rust ecosystem. As such we provide both compatibility with Serde as well as parsing to a DOM to manipulate data. Performance
