xz VS minlzma

Compare xz vs minlzma and see what are their differences.

minlzma

The Minimal LZMA (minlzma) project aims to provide a minimalistic, cross-platform, highly commented, standards-compliant C library (minlzlib) for decompressing LZMA2-encapsulated compressed data in LZMA format within an XZ container, as can be generated with Python 3.6, 7-zip, and xzutils (by ionescu007)

  • LZMA2 library for ESP32
    1 project | /r/esp32 | 27 Nov 2021
    Is there any LZMA2 library for ESP32 to decompress XZ file format? I've found minlzma, but will it work in ESP32?
