# Kaitai Struct: format library

This repository constitutes a library of ready-made binary file format
descriptions using [Kaitai Struct](http://kaitai.io/) language (`.ksy`).

These formats can be useful for:

* exploring a certain file format internals: one can load `.ksy`
format + target binary in a [Web IDE](https://ide.kaitai.io) or
[visualizer](https://github.com/kaitai-io/kaitai_struct_visualizer)
and learn what's inside;

* as a production-ready binary file parsing library: they can be
compiled with a
[Kaitai Struct compiler](https://github.com/kaitai-io/kaitai_struct_compiler)
into source code in any supported target programming language;

* as a starting point for learning applications of Kaitai Struct in
real world;
