+
+RON is a simple readable data serialization format that looks similar to Rust syntax.
+It's designed to support all of [Serde's data model](https://serde.rs/data-model.html), so
+structs, enums, tuples, arrays, generic maps, and primitive values.
+
+## Example
+
+```rust,ignore
+GameConfig( // optional struct name
+ window_size: (800, 600),
+ window_title: "PAC-MAN",
+ fullscreen: false,
+
+ mouse_sensitivity: 1.4,
+ key_bindings: {
+ "up": Up,
+ "down": Down,
+ "left": Left,
+ "right": Right,
+
+ // Uncomment to enable WASD controls
+ /*
+ "W": Up,
+ "A": Down,
+ "S": Left,
+ "D": Right,
+ */
+ },
+
+ difficulty_options: (
+ start_difficulty: Easy,
+ adaptive: false,
+ ),
+)
+```
+
+## Why RON?
+
+### Example in JSON
+
+```json
+{
+ "materials": {
+ "metal": {
+ "reflectivity": 1.0
+ },
+ "plastic": {
+ "reflectivity": 0.5
+ }
+ },
+ "entities": [
+ {
+ "name": "hero",
+ "material": "metal"
+ },
+ {
+ "name": "monster",
+ "material": "plastic"
+ }
+ ]
+}
+```
+
+### Same example in RON
+
+```rust,ignore
+Scene( // class name is optional
+ materials: { // this is a map
+ "metal": (
+ reflectivity: 1.0,
+ ),
+ "plastic": (
+ reflectivity: 0.5,
+ ),
+ },
+ entities: [ // this is an array
+ (
+ name: "hero",
+ material: "metal",
+ ),
+ (
+ name: "monster",
+ material: "plastic",
+ ),
+ ],
+)
+```
+
+Note the following advantages of RON over JSON:
+
+* trailing commas allowed
+* single- and multi-line comments
+* field names aren't quoted, so it's less verbose
+* optional struct names improve readability
+* enums are supported (and less verbose than their JSON representation)
+
+## RON syntax overview
+
+* Numbers: `42`, `3.14`, `0xFF`, `0b0110`
+* Strings: `"Hello"`, `"with\\escapes\n"`, `r#"raw string, great for regex\."#`
+* Booleans: `true`, `false`
+* Chars: `'e'`, `'\n'`
+* Optionals: `Some("string")`, `Some(Some(1.34))`, `None`
+* Tuples: `("abc", 1.23, true)`, `()`
+* Lists: `["abc", "def"]`
+* Structs: `( foo: 1.0, bar: ( baz: "I'm nested" ) )`
+* Maps: `{ "arbitrary": "keys", "are": "allowed" }`
+
+> **Note:** Serde's data model represents fixed-size Rust arrays as tuple (instead of as list)
+
+## Quickstart
+
+### `Cargo.toml`
+
+```toml
+[dependencies]
+ron = "0.8"
+serde = { version = "1", features = ["derive"] }
+```
+
+### `main.rs`
+
+```rust
+use serde::{Deserialize, Serialize};
+
+#[derive(Debug, Deserialize, Serialize)]
+struct MyStruct {
+ boolean: bool,
+ float: f32,
+}
+
+fn main() {
+ let x: MyStruct = ron::from_str("(boolean: true, float: 1.23)").unwrap();
+
+ println!("RON: {}", ron::to_string(&x).unwrap());
+}
+```
