### Byte layout
Consider the following JSON value (shown formatted for readability):
```
{
"id": 300,
"name": "json",
"pi": 3.14,
"tags": [
"a",
"b"
]
}
```
`to_bon8` encodes it to 35 bytes (shown in hexadecimal; the encoding contains no whitespace). The colors mark the role of each byte: type/marker length/count/size data.
| JSON | Bytes | Meaning |
| ----------------- | -------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `{` | 8A | object with 4 members |
| `"id": 300,` | 69 64 C4 04 | key: UTF-8 bytes; the string ends at the next byte, which cannot continue a UTF-8 character; value: 2-byte positive integer (lead byte, then a byte below 0x80) |
| `"name": "json",` | 6E 61 6D 65 FF 6A 73 6F 6E FF | key: UTF-8 bytes; 0xFF terminates the string as another string follows; value: UTF-8 bytes; terminated as a string key follows |
| `"pi": 3.14,` | 70 69 8F 40 09 1E B8 51 EB 85 1F | key: UTF-8 bytes; value: binary64 (IEEE 754, big-endian); its marker also ends `"pi"` |
| `"tags": [` | 74 61 67 73 82 | key: UTF-8 bytes; value: array with 2 elements; its marker also ends `"tags"` |
| `"a",` | 61 FF | UTF-8 bytes; terminated as a string follows |
| `"b"` | 62 FF | UTF-8 bytes; terminated as nothing follows |
| `]` | | no end marker: the element count was given up front |
| `}` | | no end marker: the member count was given up front |
## Deserialization
The library maps BON8 types to JSON value types as follows:
