CeDe stands for Compression and Decompression. It refers to the process of:
- Compression: Compressing data into its smallest form
- Decompression: Reverting compressed data into a form that retains the same output
CeDe is not responsible for:
- Serialization (e.g., json, toml, yaml)
- Use the std/serde module
- Encoding (e.g., base64, hex)
- Use the std/codec module
- Cryptography (e.g., hashing, encryption)
- Use the runtime/crypto module
Purpose
