Note from the Maintainer
This crate was mostly developed for Materialize out of a need for a more compact bytes container. It entirely borrows implementation from
compact_str which has been thoughtfully maintained over the past few years by a number of dedicated contributors, including:
- NobodyXu
- Kijewski
- matklad
- CAD97
- mcronce
- neoeinstein
- tylerhawkes
- dragazo
- Nilstrieb
- njaard
- vipentii
- vbasky
- mishrasamiksha
For now this repository exists separately from compact_str because it's easier to get started that way. But the plan is to eventually merge the two.
