+
+Whenever you pass an `std::string` reference to `parser::parse`,

+If you are using a sanitizer that checks for reading uninitialized bytes or `std::string`'s

 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.

+JSONPath
+------------
 
 
+The simdjson library supports a subset of [JSONPath](https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-normington-jsonpath-00) through the `at_path()` method, allowing you to reach further into the document in a single call. The subset of JSONPath that is implemented is the subset that is trivially convertible into the JSON Pointer format, using `.` to access a field and `[]` to access a specific index.
+
+Consider the following example:
+
+```c++
+auto cars_json = R"( [
+  { "make": "Toyota", "model": "Camry",  "year": 2018, "tire_pressure": [ 40.1, 39.9, 37.7, 40.4 ] },
+  { "make": "Kia",    "model": "Soul",   "year": 2012, "tire_pressure": [ 30.1, 31.0, 28.6, 28.7 ] },
+  { "make": "Toyota", "model": "Tercel", "year": 1999, "tire_pressure": [ 29.8, 30.0, 30.2, 30.5 ] }
+] )"_padded;
+dom::parser parser;
+dom::element doc;
+auto error = parser.parse(cars_json).get(doc);
+if(error) { /*won't happen*/ }
+double p;
+error = doc.at_path("[0].tire_pressure[1]").get(p);
+if(error) { /*won't happen*/ }
+cout << p << endl; // Prints 39.9
+```
+
+
+We also support the `$` prefix. When you start a JSONPath expression with $, you are indicating that the path starts from the root of the JSON document. E.g.,
+
+```c++
+auto json = R"( { "c" :{ "foo": { "a": [ 10, 20, 30 ] }}, "d": { "foo2": { "a": [ 10, 20, 30 ] }} , "e": 120 })"_padded;
+dom::parser parser;
+dom::element doc;
+auto error = parser.parse(json).get(doc);
+if(error) { /*won't happen*/ }
+dom::object obj;
+error = doc.get_object().get(obj);
+if(error) { /*won't happen*/ }
+int64_t x;
+error = obj.at_path("$[3].foo.a[1]").get(x);
+if(error) { /*won't happen*/ }
+if(x != 20) { /*won't happen*/ }
+x = obj.at_path("$.d.foo2.a.2");
+if(error) { /*won't happen*/ }
+```
+
+
+## Using `at_path_with_wildcard` for JSONPath Queries
+
+The `at_path_with_wildcard` function in simdjson extends the JSONPath querying capabilities by supporting wildcard expressions (`*`) in JSON paths. This allows users to retrieve multiple elements from a JSON document in a single query. For example, you can use `$.address.*` to fetch all fields within the `address` object or `$.phoneNumbers[*].numbers[*]` to retrieve all phone numbers across multiple objects in an array.
+
+The `*` wildcard matches all elements at a specific level. For instance, `$.address.*` retrieves all key-value pairs in the `address` object, while `$.*.streetAddress` fetches all `streetAddress` fields across objects at the root level.  You can combine wildcards with array indexing. For example, `$.phoneNumbers[*].numbers[1]` retrieves the second number from each `numbers` array in the `phoneNumbers` array. If no elements match the wildcard query, the function returns an empty result. For instance, querying `$.empty_object.*` or `$.empty_array.*` will yield an empty set.
+
+### Example Usage
+
+Here is an example demonstrating the use of `at_path_with_wildcard`:
+
+```cpp
+simdjson::padded_string json_string = R"(
+{
+  "firstName": "John",
+  "lastName": "doe",
+  "age": 26,
+  "address": {
+    "streetAddress": "naist street",
+    "city": "Nara",
+    "postalCode": "630-0192"
+  },
+  "phoneNumbers": [
+    {
+      "type": "iPhone",
+      "numbers": ["0123-4567-8888", "0123-4567-8788"]
+    },
+    {
+      "type": "home",
+      "numbers": ["0123-4567-8910"]
+    }
+  ]
+})"_padded;
+
+dom::parser parser;
+dom::element parsed_json = parser.parse(json_string);
+std::vector<dom::element> values;
+
+// Fetch all fields in the address object
+auto error = parsed_json.at_path_with_wildcard("$.address.*").get(values);
+if(error) {
+  // do something
+}
+for (auto &value : values) {
+  std::string_view field;
+  error = value.get(field);
+  if(error) {
+    // do something
+  }
+  std::cout << field << std::endl;
+}
+
+// Fetch all phone numbers
+error = parsed_json.at_path_with_wildcard("$.phoneNumbers[*].numbers[*]").get(values);
+if(error) {
+  // do something
+}
+for (auto &value : values) {
+  std::string_view number;
+  error = value.get(number);
+  if(error) {
+    // do something
+  }
+  std::cout << number << std::endl;
+}
+```
+
+This function is particularly useful for extracting data from complex JSON structures with nested arrays and objects. By leveraging wildcards, you can simplify your queries and reduce the need for multiple iterations.

+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,
+       "tire_pressure": [ 40.1, 39.9 ] }
+  { "make": "Kia",    "model": "Soul",   "year": 2012,
+       "tire_pressure": [ 30.1, 31.0 ] }
+  { "make": "Toyota", "model": "Tercel", "year": 1999,
+       "tire_pressure": [ 29.8, 30.0 ] }
+)"_padded;
+  ondemand::parser parser;
+  ondemand::document_stream stream;
+  [[maybe_unused]] auto error = parser.iterate_many(json).get(stream);
+  std::vector<Car> cars;
+  for(auto doc : stream) {
+    cars.push_back((Car)doc); // an exception may be thrown
+  }
+```
+
+Otherwise you may use this longer version for explicit handling of errors:
+
+
+```C++
+  std::vector<Car> cars;
+  for(auto doc : stream) {
+    Car c;
+    if ((error = doc.get<Car>().get(c))) {
+      std::cerr << simdjson::error_message(error); << std::endl;
+      return EXIT_FAILURE;
+    }
+    cars.push_back(c);
+  }
+```

+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.

+Free Padding
+-------
+
+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.
