# Algebraic Tag Length Value encoding for Rust

[`atlv`](https://gitlab.com/adapt/atlv) is a generic binary data encoding
that preserves the data's leaf-spine structure
while providing customizable tags and dictating minimal semantics.

```
value:	quant | binary | union | array
quant:	tag…00(vlq) (vlq)
binary:	tag…01(vlq) len(vlq) byte[len]
union:	tag…10(vlq) (vlq) value
array:	tag…11(vlq) len(vlq) value[len]
vlq:	0xxxxxxx | 1xxxxxxx vlq
byte:	xxxxxxxx
tag:	xxxxx | xxxxxxx tag
```

This repository contains a [Rust crate](https://crates.io/crates/atlv) for encoding, decoding, and generally manipulating `atlv` data.
