 **Describe the bug**
-A clear and concise description of what the bug is.
+A clear and concise description of what the bug is. A bug is a failure to build with normal compiler settings or a misbehaviour: when running the code, you get a result that differs from the expected result from our documentation.
 
-A compiler or static-analyzer warning is not a bug.
+A compiler or static-analyzer warning is not a bug. It is possible with tools such as Visual Studio to require that rarely enabled warnings are considered errors. Do not report such cases as bugs. We do accept pull requests if you want to silence warnings issued by code analyzers, however.
 
 We are committed to providing good documentation. We accept the lack of documentation or a misleading documentation as a bug (a 'documentation bug').
 
+An unexpected poor software performance can be accepted as a bug (a 'performance bug').
+
 We accept the identification of an issue by a sanitizer or some checker tool (e.g., valgrind) as a bug, but you must first ensure that it is not a false positive.
 
-We recommend that you run your tests using different optimization levels.
+We recommend that you run your tests using different optimization levels. In particular, we recommend your run tests with the simdjson library and you code compiled in debug mode. The simdjson then sets the SIMDJSON_DEVELOPMENT_CHECKS macro to 1, and this triggers additional checks on your code and on the internals of the library. If possible, we recommend that you run tests with sanitizers (e.g., see [No more leaks with sanitize flags in gcc and clang](https://lemire.me/blog/2016/04/20/no-more-leaks-with-sanitize-flags-in-gcc-and-clang/)).  You can compile the library with sanitizers for debugging purposes (e.g., set SIMDJSON_SANITIZE to ON using CMake), but you should also turn on sanitizers on your own code. You may also use tools like valgrind or the commercial equivalent.
 
 Before reporting a bug, please ensure that you have read our documentation.
 
 **To Reproduce**
-Steps to reproduce the behaviour: provide a code sample if possible.
+Steps to reproduce the behaviour: provide a code sample if possible. Please provide a complete test with data. Remember that a bug is either a failure to build or an unexpected result when running the code.
 
 If we cannot reproduce the issue, then we cannot address it. Note that a stack trace from your own program is not enough. A sample of your source code is insufficient: please provide a complete test for us to reproduce the issue. Please reduce the issue: use as small and as simple an example of the bug as possible.

 Contributors are encouraged to :

+- Follow as much as possible the existing code style. We do not enforce a specific code style, but we prefer consistency. We avoid contractions (isn't, aren't) in the comments.
 - Modify as few lines of code as possible when working on an issue. The more lines you modify, the harder it is for your fellow human beings to understand what is going on.
 - Tools may report "problems" with the code, but we never delegate programming to tools: if there is a problem with the code, we need to understand it. Thus we will not "fix" code merely to please a static analyzer.
 - Provide tests for any new feature. We will not merge a new feature without tests.

-# 0.5
-
-## Highlights
-
-Performance
-* Faster and simpler UTF-8 validation with the lookup4 algorithm https://github.com/simdjson/simdjson/pull/993
-* We improved the performance of simdjson under Visual Studio by about 25%. Users will still get better performance with clang-cl (+30%) but the gap has been reduced. https://github.com/simdjson/simdjson/pull/1031
-
-Code usability
-* In `parse_many`, when parsing streams of JSON documetns, we give to the users runtime control as to whether threads are used (via the parser.threaded attribute). https://github.com/simdjson/simdjson/issues/925
-* Prefixed public macros to avoid name clashes with other libraries. https://github.com/simdjson/simdjson/issues/1035
-* Better documentation regarding package managers (brew, MSYS2, conan, apt, vcpkg, FreeBSD package manager, etc.).
-* Better documentation regarding  CMake usage.
-
-Standards
-* We improved standard compliance with respect to both the JSON RFC 8259 and JSON Pointer RFC 6901. We added the at_pointer method to nodes for standard-compliant JSON Pointer queries. The legacy `at(std::string_view)` method remains but is deprecated since it is not standard-compliant as per  RFC 6901.
-* We removed computed GOTOs without sacrificing performance thus improving the C++ standard compliance (since computed GOTOs are compiler-specific extensions).
-* Better support for C++20 https://github.com/simdjson/simdjson/pull/1050
-
-# 0.4
-
-## Highlights
-
-- Test coverage has been greatly improved and we have resolved many static-analysis warnings on different systems.
-- We added a fast (8GB/s) minifier that works directly on JSON strings.
-- We added fast (10GB/s) UTF-8 validator that works directly on strings (any strings, including non-JSON).
-- The array and object elements have a constant-time size() method.
-- Performance improvements to the API (type(), get<>()).
-- The parse_many function (ndjson) has been entirely reworked. It now uses a single secondary thread instead of several new threads.
-- We have introduced a faster UTF-8 validation algorithm (lookup3) for all kernels (ARM, x64 SSE, x64 AVX).
-- C++11 support for older compilers and systems.
-- FreeBSD support (and tests).
-- We support the clang front-end compiler (clangcl) under Visual Studio.
-- It is now possible to target ARM platforms under Visual Studio.
-- The simdjson library will never abort or print to standard output/error.
-
-# 0.3
-
-## Highlights
-
-- **Multi-Document Parsing:** Read a bundle of JSON documents (ndjson) 2-4x faster than doing it
-  individually. [API docs](https://github.com/simdjson/simdjson/blob/master/doc/basics.md#newline-delimited-json-ndjson-and-json-lines) / [Design Details](https://github.com/simdjson/simdjson/blob/master/doc/parse_many.md)
-- **Simplified API:** The API has been completely revamped for ease of use, including a new JSON
-  navigation API and fluent support for error code *and* exception styles of error handling with a
-  single API. [Docs](https://github.com/simdjson/simdjson/blob/master/doc/basics.md#the-basics-loading-and-parsing-json-documents)
-- **Exact Float Parsing:** Now simdjson parses floats flawlessly *without* any performance loss,
-  thanks to [great work by @michaeleisel and @lemire](https://github.com/simdjson/simdjson/pull/558).
-  [Blog Post](https://lemire.me/blog/2020/03/10/fast-float-parsing-in-practice/)
-- **Even Faster:** The fastest parser got faster! With a [shiny new UTF-8 validator](https://github.com/simdjson/simdjson/pull/387)
-  and meticulously refactored SIMD core, simdjson 0.3 is 15% faster than before, running at 2.5 GB/s
-  (where 0.2 ran at 2.2 GB/s).
-
-## Minor Highlights
-
-- Fallback implementation: simdjson now has a non-SIMD fallback implementation, and can run even on
-  very old 64-bit machines.
-- Automatic allocation: as part of API simplification, the parser no longer has to be preallocated--
-  it will adjust automatically when it encounters larger files.
-- Runtime selection API: We've exposed simdjson's runtime CPU detection and implementation selection
-  as an API, so you can tell what implementation we detected and test with other implementations.
-- Error handling your way: Whether you use exceptions or check error codes, simdjson lets you handle
-  errors in your style. APIs that can fail return simdjson_result<T>, letting you check the error
-  code before using the result. But if you are more comfortable with exceptions, skip the error code
-  and cast straight to T, and exceptions will be thrown automatically if an error happens. Use the
-  same API either way!
-- Error chaining: We also worked to keep non-exception error-handling short and sweet. Instead of
-  having to check the error code after every single operation, now you can *chain* JSON navigation
-  calls like looking up an object field or array element, or casting to a string, so that you only
-  have to check the error code once at the very end.

 The parsed document resulting from the `parser.load` and `parser.parse` calls depends on the `parser` instance. Thus the `parser` instance must remain in scope. Furthermore, you must have at most one parsed document in play per `parser` instance.
 You cannot copy a `parser` instance, you may only move it.
 
-If you need to keep a document around long term, you can keep or move the parser instance.

 During the`load` or `parse` calls, neither the input file nor the input string are ever modified. After calling `load` or `parse`, the source (either a file or a string) can be safely discarded. All of the JSON data is stored in the `parser` instance.  The parsed document is also immutable in simdjson: you do not modify it by accessing it.

+Performance Tips
+---------------------

+- For release builds, we recommend setting `NDEBUG` pre-processor directive when compiling the `simdjson` library. Importantly, using the optimization flags `-O2` or `-O3` under GCC and LLVM clang does not set the `NDEBUG` directrive, you must set it manually (e.g., `-DNDEBUG`).
+- For long streams of JSON documents, consider [`iterate_many`](iterate_many.md) and [`parse_many`](parse_many.md) for better performance.

+Comma-separated documents
+-----------
+
+We also support comma-separated documents, but with some performance limitations. The `iterate_many` function  takes in an option to allow parsing of comma separated documents (which defaults on false). In this mode, the entire buffer is processed in one batch. Therefore, the total size of the document should not exceed the maximal capacity of the parser (4 GB). This mode also effectively disallow multithreading. It is therefore mostly suitable for not "very large" inputs. In this mode, the batch_size parameter
+is effectively ignored, as it is set to at least the document size.

+C++20 features
+--------------------
+
+In C++20, the standard introduced the notion of *customization point*.
+A customization point is a function or function object that can be customized for different types. It allows library authors to provide default behavior while giving users the ability to override this behavior for specific types.
+
+A tag_invoke function serves as a mechanism for customization points. It is not directly part of the C++ standard library but is often used in libraries that implement customization points.
+The tag_invoke function is typically a generic function that takes a tag type and additional arguments.
+The first argument is usually a tag type (often an empty struct) that uniquely identifies the customization point (e.g., deserialization of custom types in simdjson). Users or library providers can specialize tag_invoke for their types by defining it in the appropriate namespace, often inline namespace.
+
+
+
+You can deserialize you own data structures conveniently if your system supports C++20.
+When it is the case, the macro `SIMDJSON_SUPPORTS_DESERIALIZATION` will be set to 1 by
+the simdjson library.
+
+Consider a custom class `Car`:
+
+```C++
+struct Car {
+  std::string make;
+  std::string model;
+  int year;
+  std::vector<float> tire_pressure;
+};
+```
+
+
+You may support deserializing directly from a JSON value or document to your own `Car` instance
+by defining a single `tag_invoke` function:
+
+
+```C++
+namespace simdjson {
+// This tag_invoke MUST be inside simdjson namespace
+template <typename simdjson_value>
+auto tag_invoke(deserialize_tag, simdjson_value &val, Car& car) {
+  ondemand::object obj;
+  auto error = val.get_object().get(obj);
+  if (error) {
+    return error;
+  }
+  if ((error = obj["make"].get_string(car.make))) {
+    return error;
+  }
+  if ((error = obj["model"].get_string(car.model))) {
+    return error;
+  }
+  if ((error = obj["year"].get(car.year))) {
+    return error;
+  }
+  if ((error = obj["tire_pressure"].get<std::vector<float>>().get(
+           car.tire_pressure))) {
+    return error;
+  }
+  return simdjson::SUCCESS;
+}
+} // namespace simdjson
+```
+
+Importantly, the `tag_invoke` function must be inside the `simdjson` namespace.
+Let us explain each argument of `tag_invoke` function.
+
+- `simdjson::deserialize_tag`: it is the tag for Customization Point Object (CPO). You may often ignore this parameter. It is used to indicate that you mean to provide a deserialization function for simdjson.
+- `var`: It receives automatically a `simdjson` value type (document, value, document_reference).
+- The third parameter is an instance of the type that you want to support.
+
+Please see our main documentation (`basics.md`) under
+"Use `tag_invoke` for custom types (C++20)" for details about
+tag_invoke functions.
+
+Given a stream of JSON documents, you can add them to a data struture
+such as a `std::vector<Car>` like so if you support exceptions:
+
+```C++
+  padded_string json =
+      R"( { "make": "Toyota", "model": "Camry",  "year": 2018,

+The On-Demand approach is designed around several principles:
 
 * **Streaming (\*):** It avoids preparsing values, keeping the memory usage and the latency down.
 * **Forward-Only:** To prevent reiteration of the same values and to keep the number of variables down (literally), only a single index is maintained and everything uses it (even if you have nested for loops). This means when you are going through an array of arrays, for example, that the inner array loop will advance the index to the next comma, and the array can just pick it up and look at it.
 * **Natural Iteration:** A JSON array or object can be iterated with a normal C++ for loop. Nested arrays and objects are supported by nested for loops.
 * **Use-Specific Parsing:** Parsing is always specific to the type required by the programmer. For example, if the programmer asks for an unsigned integer, we just start parsing digits. If there were no digits, we toss an error. There are even different parsers for `double`, `uint64_t` and `int64_t` values. This use-specific parsing avoids the branchiness of a generic "type switch," and makes the code more inlineable and compact.
-* **Validate What You Use:** On Demand deliberately validates the values you use and the structure leading to it, but nothing else. The goal is a guarantee that the value you asked for is the correct one and is not malformed: there must be no confusion over whether you got the right value.

+For performance reasons, the simdjson library requires that the JSON input contain at least
+`simdjson::SIMDJSON_PADDING` bytes at the end of the stream. The value `simdjson::SIMDJSON_PADDING` is
+small (e.g., 64 bytes). On modern systems, you can safely read beyond an allocated buffers,
+as long as you remain within an allocated page. Pages on modern systems span at least 4 kilobytes,
+but can be significantly larger. E.g., Apple systems favour pages spanning 16 kilobytes.
+
+In effect, it means that you can almost always read a few bytes beyond your current buffer---without
+allocating extra memory. However, tools such as valgrind or memory sanitizers will flag such behavior as unsafe.
+Nevertheless, you can still make sure of this capability in your code if you are an expert
+programmer and you are willing to silence sanitizer warnings. The following code provides
+a portable example.
+
+
+The conditional compilation checks for the `_MSC_VER` macro (indicating Microsoft Visual Studio)
+and includes platform-specific headers accordingly.
+The `page_size()` function determines the default size of a memory page in bytes on the system.
+On Windows (when `_WIN32` is defined), it uses `GetSystemInfo()` to retrieve system information and obtain the page size.
+On other platforms (non-Windows), it uses `sysconf(_SC_PAGESIZE)` to get the page size.
+The function returns the page size.
+The `need_allocation()` function checks whether the buffer (given by `buf`) plus the specified length (`len`) is near a page boundary.
+If the buffer extends beyond the current page when padded by `simdjson::SIMDJSON_PADDING`, it returns true, indicating that reallocation is needed.
+Otherwise, it returns false.
+The `get_padded_string_view()`  creates a `padded_string_view` from the input buffer.
+If reallocation is needed (unlikely case), it allocates a new padded_string and assigns it to `jsonbuffer`.
+Otherwise (very likely), it creates a `padded_string_view` directly from the buffer.
+The `simdjson::SIMDJSON_PADDING` ensures that there is additional padding for parsing efficiency.
+The calling code just needs to provide `jsonbuffer` (an instance of `simdjson::padded_string`)
+and pass `get_padded_string_view(buf, len, jsonbuffer)` to  `parser.iterate`. Most of the time,
+this code will not allocate new memory.
