# Kwil Header tool
An in-development command line tool for generating serialization code from C header files.
Kwil aims to be a non-intrusive drop-in (and if necessary drop-out) solution to automate the annoying task of writing deserialization and serialization code.
Currently aiming for json support, though adding (optional) support for other formats is strongly considered for implementing at a later time.
Features:
[x] Generate `*_json_length` and `*_to_json`functions for structs and enums marked with `KWIL_STRUCT()` or `KWIL_ENUM()`
[ ] Generate `*_from_json` functions for structs.
[ ] Dynamic array length specifiers (e.g: `KWIL_FIELD(LEN=13` or `KWIL_FIELD(LEN=src->field_length`)
