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

• dragonbox

  9 500 9.0 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.

• C++ Format

  161 19,389 9.7 C++

  A modern formatting library

• fast_float

  15 1,282 8.7 C++

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