 FlatBuffers [](https://travis-ci.org/google/flatbuffers)
|
|
===========
|
|
**FlatBuffers** is an efficient cross platform serialization library for games and
|
|
other memory constrained apps. It allows you to directly access serialized data without
|
|
unpacking/parsing it first, while still having great forwards/backwards compatibility.
|

## Integration
|
|
For applications on Google Play that integrate this tool, usage is tracked.
|
|
This tracking is done automatically using the embedded version string
|
|
(**`flatbuffer_version_string`**), and helps us continue to optimize it. Aside from
|
|
consuming a few extra bytes in your application binary, it shouldn't affect
|
|
your application at all. We use this information to let us know if FlatBuffers
|
|
is useful and if we should continue to invest in it. Since this is open
|
|
source, you are free to remove the version string but we would appreciate if
|
|
you would leave it in.
|
