Currently,
pabois essentially a pure Python package, with some code written in C++ for speed. The idea behind this PR is to rebuild it as a Python interface to thenomcrate in Rust. We will also add features using other crates, such asuxto deal with low bit width integers. Soon,pabowill no longer be a dependency forpriwo. However, I still believe that having a simple, convenient, and powerful library for parsing binary data is needed in Python. Thus, I have decided to continue developing this package. The Rust backend will ensure that the package is fast, has minimal dependencies, and can be installed across all platforms.PS: Going forward, the development of this package will be dictated by how much coding I can get done in my free time, since this is no longer a dependency for any of my work-related projects. Let's hope for the best 🤞🏾 !
