We use FlatBuffers (the parent project) in our code @ FS... that means it has to work in C++, Rust, Java, and TypeScript. It's mostly the schema processing that requires a C++ compiler to make it work.

It's a pretty stellar cross-platform serialization toolkit and the zero-copy support for reading is no joke.

We've been using it across multiple languages too as the data serialization format between server and (web) client. It's fantastic.
