+# flatted (Rust)
+
+A super light and fast circular JSON parser.
+
+## Usage
+
+```toml
+[dependencies]
+flatted = { path = "../rust" } # or publish path / git dependency
+```
+
+```rust
+use std::cell::RefCell;
+use std::rc::Rc;
+
+use flatted::{parse_simple, stringify_simple, Object, Value};
+
+fn main() {
+    // const a = [{}]; a[0].a = a; a.push(a);
+    let a = Value::Array(Rc::new(RefCell::new(vec![Value::empty_object()])));
+    let first = a.as_array().unwrap().borrow()[0].clone();
+    first
+        .as_object()
+        .unwrap()
+        .borrow_mut()
+        .insert("a".into(), a.clone());
+    a.as_array().unwrap().borrow_mut().push(a.clone());
+
+    let s = stringify_simple(&a).unwrap();
+    assert_eq!(s, r#"[["1","0"],{"a":"0"}]"#);
+
+    let back = parse_simple(&s).unwrap();
+    let again = back.as_array().unwrap().borrow()[1].clone();
+    let self_ref = again.as_object().unwrap().borrow().get("a").cloned().unwrap();
+    assert!(back.ptr_eq(&self_ref));
+}
+```
+
+Arrays and objects use `Rc<RefCell<_>>` so circular and shared references keep
+their identity after parsing (Rust has no built-in reference-typed JSON value).
+
+## API
+
+| Function | Role |
+|----------|------|
+| `stringify(value, replacer, space)` | Flatten to flatted JSON text |
+| `parse(text, reviver)` | Restore a recursive value graph |
+| `to_json(value)` | Flatten to a plain `serde_json::Value` array |
+| `from_json(value)` | Restore recursion from that array |
+| `stringify_simple` / `parse_simple` | Same without replacer/reviver/space |
+
+## CLI
+
+```bash
+cargo build --release --features cli
+echo '{"a":"b"}' | ./target/release/flatted
+echo '[{"a":"1"},"b"]' | ./target/release/flatted -d
+```
+
+## Test
+
+```bash
+cargo test
+```
+
+## Bench (vs JS)
+
+Same 1s wall-clock methodology as `test/bench.js`:
+
+```bash
+# from repo root — compares ESM/JS vs Rust release
+npm run bench:js-rs
+
+# or individually
+node test/bench-flatted.mjs
+cargo run --example bench --release --manifest-path rust/Cargo.toml
+```
+
+## Note on crates.io
+
+The name `flatted` is already taken on crates.io by an unofficial port. This
+directory is the official WebReflection port in this repository; publish naming
+can be decided separately (for example a scoped / renamed crate).
