This repository contains a proposal and various implementations of Preserves, a new data model and serialization format in many ways comparable to JSON, XML, S-expressions, CBOR, ASN.1 BER, and so on.

Core documents

Preserves data model and serialization formats

Preserves is defined in terms of a syntax-neutral data model and semantics which all transfer syntaxes share. This allows trivial, completely automatic, perfect-fidelity conversion between syntaxes.

Preserves tutorial
Preserves specification, including semantics, data model, textual syntax, and compact binary syntax
Canonical Form for Binary Syntax
Syrup, a hybrid binary/human-readable syntax for the Preserves data model

Preserves schema and queries

Implementations

Implementations of the data model, plus the textual and/or binary transfer syntaxes:

Preserves for Nim
Preserves for Python (pip install preserves)
Preserves for Racket (raco pkg install preserves)
Preserves for Rust (crates.io package)
Preserves for Squeak Smalltalk (Installer ss project: 'Preserves'; install: 'Preserves')
Preserves for TypeScript and JavaScript (yarn add @preserves/core)

Implementations of the data model, plus Syrup transfer syntax:
