refloctopus 0.0.1

Speedy reflection-based serde transcoder
#![no_std]
//! Runtime reflection of Rust values.
//!
//! `serde_derive` is infamous for the sheer amount of code its liberal use can introduce
//! to a workspace. `refloctopus` tries to combat that: avoid deriving `Serialize` and
//! `Deserialize` for most of your types, instead deriveing `Reflect`. The reflection
//! metadata for each type is reasonably small. Using the reflection metadata, a single
//! `Serialize`/`Deserialize` implementation can marshall any Rust type.
