FlatCrawler

=====

![License](https://img.shields.io/badge/License-GPLv3-blue.svg)

Data crawling utility tool & library to reverse engineer [FlatBuffer](https://google.github.io/flatbuffers/) binaries with undocumented schemas, programmed in [C#](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C_Sharp_%28programming_language%29).

Loading a FlatBuffer binary into the console application will allow manual traversal through the serialized objects, and displays a terminal interface for program input.

An example manual parse of a FlatBuffer used by Pokémon Sword/Shield is provided in the sandbox project. For more detailed information on how to use this project, refer to [the Wiki](../../wiki).
