A JSON binary Alternative

YAJBE is a compact binary data format built to be a drop-in replacement for #JSON (JavaScript Object Notation).

We have a lot of services exchanging or storing data using JSON, and most of them don't want to switch to a data format that requires a schema.

We wanted to remove the overhead of the JSON format (especially field names), but keeping the same data model flexibility (numbers, strings, arrays, maps/objects, and a few values such as false, true, and null).

The main languages we use are Java and Javascript/Typescript, so the idea was to replace the JsonMapper class from Jackson (Java) and the JSON.stringify()/parse() from javascript with the new one and everything will be faster (the same will be true for other languages).
