First release of dragonbox, a fast float-to-string conversion algorithm, is available

1. dragonbox

   1 13 744 8.8 C++

   Reference implementation of Dragonbox in C++

   

   There are some benchmarks in https://github.com/jk-jeon/dragonbox#performance. TL;DR it's faster than other state of the art algorithms like Ryu, Schubfach and variations of Grisu. We saw a nice speed up when switching from Grisu3 to Dragonbox in {fmt}: https://github.com/fmtlib/fmt/pull/1882 and it has been improved even more since then.

4. fast_float

   3 15 1,861 8.2 C++

   Fast and exact implementation of the C++ from_chars functions for number types: 4x to 10x faster than strtod, part of GCC 12, Chromium, Redis and WebKit/Safari

   

   How this compares to https://github.com/fastfloat/fast_float ?
