FlatBuffers is an efficient cross platform serialization library for C++, C#, C, Go, Java, Kotlin, JavaScript, Lobster, Lua, TypeScript, PHP, Python, Rust and Swift. It was originally created at Google for game development and other performance-critical applications.
Engineering High-Performance Parsers with Data-Oriented Design
Notes from building Yuku: the AST is flat arrays of u32 indices instead of a pointer tree, and memory layout, allocation, strings, unicode, and serialization all follow from that one decision.
Protocol Buffers
Protocol Buffers are language-neutral, platform-neutral extensible mechanisms for serializing structured data.
Using Flatpak
This page provides an introduction to the flatpak command line interface, and explains essential technical conventions as well as the most common commands. End users shouldn’t generally need to use...

Flatpak—the future of application distribution
The days of chasing multiple Linux distributions are over. Standalone apps for Linux are here!
MessagePack: It's like JSON. but fast and small.
MessagePack is an efficient binary serialization format. It lets you exchange data among multiple languages like JSON. But it's faster and smaller. Small integers are encoded into a single byte, and typical short strings require only one extra byte in addition to the strings themselves.
LIEF - Library to Instrument Executable Formats
LIEF is a cross-platform C++, Python, and Rust library to parse, analyze, modify, assemble, disassemble, and rewrite ELF, PE, Mach-O, and other executable formats.
Cap'n Proto: Introduction
Cap’n Proto is an insanely fast data interchange format and capability-based RPC system. Think JSON, except binary. Or think Protocol Buffers, except faster. In fact, in benchmarks, Cap’n Proto is INFINITY TIMES faster than Protocol Buffers.
