Comment on A fast EDN (Extensible Data Notation) reader written in C11 with SIMD boostparent

Comments

One of a key design principles in EDN is to be exclusively data exchange format. Which is true even for JSON where json-schema is something that sits on top of JSON itself. Same goes to EDN - in Clojure there is clojure.spec that adds schema like notation, validation rules and conformation. https://clojure.org/about/spec , something like this could be implemented in other languages as well.
