You need a correspondingly recent assembler such as gas (2.30+) or nasm (2.14+): recent compilers usually come with recent assemblers. If you mix a recent compiler with an incompatible/old assembler (e.g., when using a recent compiler with an old Linux distribution), you may get errors at build time because the compiler produces instructions that the assembler does not recognize: you should update your assembler to match your compiler (e.g., upgrade binutils to version 2.30 or better under Linux) or use an older compiler matching the capabilities of your assembler.

+Builder
+==========
+
+Sometimes you want to generate JSON string outputs efficiently.
+The simdjson library provides high-performance low-level facilities.
+When using these low-level functionalities, you are responsible to
+define the structure of your JSON document. However, string escaping
+and UTF-8 validation is automated.
+
+Overview: string_builder
+---------------------------
+
+The string_builder class is a low-level utility for constructing JSON strings representing documents. It is optimized for performance, potentially leveraging kernel-specific features like SIMD instructions for tasks such as string escaping. This class supports atomic types (e.g., booleans, numbers, strings) but does not handle composed types directly (like arrays or objects).
+
+An `string_builder` is created with an initial buffer capacity (e.g., 1kB). The memory
+is reallocated when needed. It has the following methods to add content to the string:
+
+
+- `append(number_type v)`: Appends a number (including booleans) to the JSON buffer. Booleans are converted to the strings "false" or "true". Numbers are formatted according to the JSON standard, with floating-point numbers using the shortest representation that accurately reflects the value.
+- `append(char c)`: Appends a single character to the JSON buffer.
+- `append_null()`: Appends the string "null" to the JSON buffer.
+- `clear()`: Clears the contents of the JSON buffer, resetting the position to 0 while retaining the allocated capacity.
+- `escape_and_append(std::string_view input)`: Appends a string view to the JSON buffer after escaping special characters (e.g., quotes, backslashes) as required by JSON.
+- `escape_and_append_with_quotes(std::string_view input)` Appends a string view surrounded by double quotes (e.g., "input") to the JSON buffer after escaping special characters.
+Parameters:
+- `escape_and_append_with_quotes(char input)`: Appends a single character surrounded by double quotes (e.g., "c") to the JSON buffer after escaping it if necessary.
+- `append_raw(const char *c)`: Appends a null-terminated C string directly to the JSON buffer without escaping.
+- `append_raw(std::string_view input)`: Appends a string view directly to the JSON buffer without escaping.
+- `append_raw(const char *str, size_t len)`: Appends a specified number of characters from a C string directly to the JSON
+
+After writting the content, if you have reasons to believe that the content might violate UTF-8 conventions, you can check it as follows:
+
+- `validate_unicode()`: Checks if the content in the JSON buffer is valid UTF-8. Returns: true if the content is valid UTF-8, false otherwise.
+
+Once you are satisfied, you can recover the string as follows:
+
+- `operator std::string()`: Converts the JSON buffer to an std::string. (Might throw if an error occurred.)
+- `operator std::string_view()`: Converts the JSON buffer to an std::string_view.  (Might throw if an error occurred.)
+- `view()`: Returns a view of the written JSON buffer as a `simdjson_result<std::string_view>`.
+
+The later method (`view()`) is recommended.
+
+Example: string_builder
+---------------------------
+
+```C++
+
+    void serialize_car(const Car& car, simdjson::builder::string_builder& builder) {
+        // start of JSON
+        builder.start_object();
+
+        // "make"
+        builder.append_key_value("make", car.make);
+        builder.append_comma();

+        // "model"

+        builder.append_comma();
+
+        // "year"
+        builder.append_key_value("year", car.year);
+        builder.append_comma();
+
+        // "tire_pressure"
+        builder.escape_and_append_with_quotes("tire_pressure");
+        builder.append_colon();
+        builder.start_array();
+        // vector tire_pressure
+        for (size_t i = 0; i < car.tire_pressure.size(); ++i) {
+            builder.append(car.tire_pressure[i]);
+            if (i < car.tire_pressure.size() - 1) {
+                builder.append_comma();
+            }
+        }
+        builder.end_array();
+        builder.end_object();
+    }
+
+    bool car_test() {
+        simdjson::builder::string_builder sb;
+        Car c = {"Toyota", "Corolla", 2017, {30.0,30.2,30.513,30.79}};
+        serialize_car(c, sb);
+        std::string_view p;
+        if(sb.view().get(p)) {
+            return false; // there was an error
+        }
+        // p holds the JSON:
+        // "{\"make\":\"Toyota\",\"model\":\"Corolla\",\"year\":2017,\"tire_pressure\":[30.0,30.2,30.513,30.79]}"
+        return true;
+    }
+```
+
+C++26 static reflection
+------------------------
+
+If you have a compiler with support C++26 static reflection, you can compile
+your code with the `SIMDJSON_STATIC_REFLECTION` macro set:
+
+```cpp
+#define SIMDJSON_STATIC_REFLECTION 1
+//...
+#include "simdjson.h"
+```
+
+And then you can append your data structures to a `string_builder` instance
+automatically. In most cases, it should work automatically:
+
+```cpp
+    bool car_test() {
+        simdjson::builder::string_builder sb;
+        Car c = {"Toyota", "Corolla", 2017, {30.0,30.2,30.513,30.79}};
+        append(sb, c);
+        std::string_view p;
+        if(sb.view().get(p)) {
+            return false; // there was an error
+        }
+        // p holds the JSON:
+        // "{\"make\":\"Toyota\",\"model\":\"Corolla\",\"year\":2017,\"tire_pressure\":[30.0,30.2,30.513,30.79]}"
+        return true;
+    }
+```
+
+If you prefer, you can also create a string directly:
+
+```cpp
+  std::string json;
+  if(simdjson::builder::to_json_string(c).get(json)) {
+    // there was an error
+  } else {
+    // json contain the serialized JSON

+We recommend Visual Studio users prefer LLVM (clang-cl). It compiles to faster release binaries. Furthermore, it compilers faster in release mode.

 Under Windows, we also support the GNU GCC compiler via MSYS2. The performance of 64-bit MSYS2 under Windows is excellent (on par with Linux).
