Crate readme

Short description This crate provides a fast conversion of byte arrays to hexadecimal strings, both at compile time, and at run time.

Long description It aims to be a drop-in replacement for the hex crate, and extends the API with const-eval, a const-generics formatting buffer, and more. This crate offers performance comparable to faster-hex on x86/x86-64 but outperforms it on other platforms, and is significantly faster than hex in encoding and decoding.

Features • Drop-in replacement for hex • const-eval support • const-generics formatting buffer • Performance outperforming faster-hex on non-x86 architectures • Designed for rustc 1.64+

Code Examples Basic usage

 use const_hex::const_encode;

let hex = const_encode!(b"hello");
