Crate anybuf

A minimal (like seriously), zero dependency protobuf encoder.

Non goals

• Decoding (Upcoming in https://github.com/noislabs/anybuf/pull/2)
• protobuf 2 things
• Field sorting
• Groups support (deprecated, see https://protobuf.dev/programming-guides/proto2/#groups)

Supported:

• Varint fields (bool/uint32/uint64/sint32/sint64)
• Variable length fields (string/bytes)
• Repeated (bool/uint32/uint64/string/bytes/messages)
• Nested: Just append an Anybuf instance

Not yet supported:

• Fixed length types
• Packed encoding for repeated fields
• int32/int64

Structs

• Anybuf
