I'm writing a reader of Avro files in the Odin language. Mainly for fun.

Very much a work in progress and I make no promises about finishing this.

• read avro object with complex types
  • arrays
  • nested records
  • maps
  • enums
  • fixed
  • unions
• read avro object containing any primitive types
• logical types (such as all timestamps)
• aliases
• default values
• Add proper error handling
• Stream the file instead of reading all at once to allow reading very large files
• Write out a proper test suite
• Improve how memory is stored
• Add some proper CI to run tests (and linting if odin has any good linting...)
• write avro

What would be really fun would be after finishing avro, writing a parquet reader and possibly even an Iceberg table reader...
