Binary Parsing - C++23 Style!
summary
Claims a self‑contained embedded DSL written with C++23 Template Metaprogramming that generates parsers at compile time without macros or external code generators, handles padding/alignment via explicit field sizes and fixed_string non‑type template parameters, supports nested structs and length‑prefixed vectors, performs runtime validation and returns std::expected‑style errors (buffer exhaustion), uses a monadic pipeline and field‑lookup by type lists, and links to the repo https://github.com/hariceratops/s2s/tree/main.
