With concurrent Ninja builds, a small client\nproject can build flatcc with libraries, generate schema code, link the project\nand execute a test case in a few seconds, produce binaries between 15K and 60K,\nread small buffers in 30ns, build FlatBuffers in about 600ns, and with a larger\nexecutable also handle optional json parsing or printing in less than 2 us for a\n10 field mixed type message.\n\n\n\u003c!-- vim-markdown-toc GFM --\u003e\n\n* [Online Forums](#online-forums)\n* [Introduction](#introduction)\n  * [Integrating FlatCC](#integrating-flatcc)\n* [Project Details](#project-details)\n* [Reporting Bugs](#reporting-bugs)\n* [Status](#status)\n  * [Main features supported as of 0.6.1](#main-features-supported-as-of-061)\n  * [Supported platforms (CI tested)](#supported-platforms-ci-tested)\n  * [Platforms reported to work by users](#platforms-reported-to-work-by-users)\n  * [Portability](#portability)\n* [Time / Space / Usability Tradeoff](#time--space--usability-tradeoff)\n* [Generated Files](#generated-files)\n  * [Use of Macros in Generated Code](#use-of-macros-in-generated-code)\n  * [Extracting Documentation](#extracting-documentation)\n* [Using flatcc](#using-flatcc)\n* [Trouble Shooting](#tro",
