Transit.c is a new C implementation of the Transit data format, offering zero-copy reading and writing capabilities. The format provides a richer type system than JSON while maintaining compatibility with JSON and MessagePack tooling, featuring built-in compression for repeated elements and support for additional data types like timestamps and UUIDs.
Background
