# `bzipper`
[`bzipper`](https://crates.io/crates/bzipper) is a binary (de)serialiser for the Rust language.
Contrary to [Serde](https://crates.io/crates/serde/)/[Bincode](https://crates.io/crates/bincode/), the goal of this crate is to serialise data with a known size limit.
Therefore, this crate may be more suited for networking or other cases where a fixed-sized buffer is needed.
Keep in mind that this project is still work-in-progress.
This crate does not require any dependencies at the moment.
See [Docs.rs](https://docs.rs/bzipper/latest/bzipper/) for documentation.
## Data Model
Most primitive types serialise losslessly, with the exception being `usize` and `isize`.
These serialise as `u16` and `i16`, respectively, for portability reasons.
Unsized types, such as `str` and slices, are not supported.
Instead, array should be used.
For strings, the `FixedString` type is also provided.
