Not a maintainer, but maybe better as a feature, since ryu is pure rust code and easier to compile?

this pure rust implementation https://github.com/dtolnay/zmij

by the same author as ryu, but initially I posted a link to the original repository for a faster algorithm

Thanks, the link in ur description is wrong, it seems to take me to the c implementation instead

Thanks @chirizxc for the PR! Even though the library is authored by dtolnay I don't want to switch over to it 100% since it's only a few days old.

+1 to what @NobodyXu mentioned about feature gating this. Could you make zmij an optional dependency and only use it when the feature is enabled?

Essentially, it's just a faster algorithm. For example, in serde-rs/json / miniserde, ryu has already been replaced with zmij.
