- 0️⃣ Has zero dependencies - pure library that just works anywhere .NET works i.e. desktops, servers, phones, watches and so on.
- 🚀Really fast. Faster than Python and Java, and alternative C# implementations out there. It's even faster than native C++ implementations. Hardware acceleration is added in more and more places.
- 🏠NET native. Designed to utilise .NET and made for .NET developers, not the other way around.
- ❤️🩹Not a "wrapper" that forces you to fit in. It's the other way around — forces Parquet to fit into .NET.
- 🦄Unique Features:
- The only library that supports dynamic schemas.
- Supports all parquet types, encodings and compressions.
- Fully supports C# class serialization, for all simple and complex Parquet types.
