## Historique du projet et usages

Colfer is a binary serialization format and schema compiler optimized for speed and size.

### Historique du projet

The official README describes Colfer as inspired by Protocol Buffers and centered on the colf compiler, which reads schema definitions and generates source code for marshaling and unmarshaling data structures.

### Historique d'adoption

Official packaging notes mention prebuilt compiler releases and Homebrew installation, indicating a distribution model aimed at command-line compiler use rather than only library embedding.

### Modes d'utilisation

The colf command generates C, Go, Java, or JavaScript output from .colf schema files. The README recommends committing generated source code to version control to preserve build consistency and reduce compiler installation requirements.

### Pourquoi les passionnés de paquets s'y intéressent

Colfer is notable as a small schema compiler package with no runtime configuration and a source-generation workflow similar to other IDL and serialization compilers.

### Chronologie

- 2015: Official GitHub repository is created.
- 2010s: README documents C, Go, Java, and JavaScript code generation support.
- 2020s: README continues to document Homebrew installation and prebuilt compiler releases.

### Related projects

- The official manual lists protoc and flatc as related tools, placing Colfer in the same package-manager neighborhood as Protocol Buffers and FlatBuffers compilers.
