In this week’s release, I’ve added Base16, 32, and 64 support to Fan’s standard library. Like in Go, “Package encoding defines interfaces shared by other packages that convert data to and from byte-level and textual representations”. This is the first contribution to std/encoding. Next, I’ll be working on a JSON implementation.
