ZStandard

[kraptor23]

Hello,

I've really enjoyed working with your .net standard 2.0 library for LZ4 on our network stack. We're interested in using zstd in our network stack as well, but given that we cross compile windows/linux/ios/android, it really needs to be a .net standard, and not a wrapper of the native library (as all of the C# implementations are right now). I'm wondering if you'd be interested in either a sponsored open source effort, or direct consulting to bring such a library to life. Message me at karl at taniustech.com.

Thanks!

Hi,

I was thinking about that few times.
I will need to look at Zstd sources, as with new features in LZ4 it gets more and more complicated to port it. As it is the same author but also commercially supported I have reasons to suspect it might even more complicated (more features).

I'll take a look though, but even if I will stand with something simple, like block compression only.

Sounds great - as I mentioned, email me about any arrangements we can help with. Would love to see Zstd make it to C# as a standard library just like LZ4.
