 Adding support for custom types
 ----------------------
 
+There are 2 main ways provided by simdjson to deserialize a value into a custom type:
+
+1. Provide a [**template specialization** for member functions](https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/language/template_specialization#Members_of_specializations)
+   1. Specialize `simdjson::ondemand::document::get` for the whole document

+C++20 or better should skip ahead to [using `tag_invoke` for custom types (C++20)](#2-use-tag_invoke-for-custom-types-c20) as it is more powerful and simpler.

+### 2. Use `tag_invoke` for custom types (C++20)
+
+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.
+
+
+If your system supports C++20, we recommend that you adopt the `tag_invoke` approach
+instead to deserialize custom types. It may prove to be considerably simpler. When
+simdjson detects the necessary support, it sets the `SIMDJSON_SUPPORTS_DESERIALIZATION` macro
+to 1, otherwise it is set to 0.
+
+Consider a custom class `Car`:
+
+```C++
+struct Car {
+  std::string make;
+  std::string model;
+  int year;
+  std::vector<float> tire_pressure;
+};
+```
+
+Observe how we defined the class to use types that simdjson does not directly support (`float`, `int`).
+With C++20 support, the library grabs from the JSON the generic type (`double`, `int`) and then it
+casts it automatically.
+
+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
+```
+
+Observe how we call `get<std::vector<float>>()` even though we never defined support
+for `std::vector<float>` in the simdjson library: it is all automated thanks to C++20 concepts.
+
+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.
+
+You can use it like so:
+
+```cpp
+  simdjson::padded_string json =
+      R"( { "make": "Toyota", "model": "Camry",  "year": 2018,
+       "tire_pressure": [ 40.1, 39.9 ] })"_padded;
+  simdjson::ondemand::parser parser;
+  simdjson::ondemand::document doc = parser.iterate(json);
+  Car c(doc);
+  std::cout << c.make << std::endl;
+```
+
+Observe how we first get an instance of `document` and then we cast.
+
+You can also handle errors explicitly:
+
+```cpp
+  Car c;
+  auto error = doc.get(c);
+  if(error) { std::cerr << simdjson::error_message(error); return false; }
+  std::cout << c.make << std::endl;
+```
+
+You can also read instances of `Car` from an array or an object:
+```cpp
+  simdjson::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;
+
+  simdjson::ondemand::parser parser;
+  simdjson::ondemand::document doc = parser.iterate(json);
+  for (auto val : doc) {
+    Car c(val); // an exception may be thrown
+    std::cout << c.year << std::endl;
+  }
+```
+
+Observe how we first get a generic (`val`) which we cast to `Car`. It is by design: we require
+explicit casting. The cast may throw an exception.
+
+Once more, you can handle errors explicitly:
+
+```cpp
+  for (auto val : doc) {
+    Car c;
+    auto error = val.get(c);
+    if(error) { std::cerr << simdjson::error_message(error) << std::endl; return false; }
+  }
+```
+
+You can also use the custom `Car` type as part of a template such as `std::vector`:
+
+```cpp
+  simdjson::ondemand::parser parser;
+  simdjson::ondemand::document doc = parser.iterate(json);
+  std::vector<Car> cars(doc);
+  // visual studio users need an explicit call:
+  //   std::vector<Car> cars = doc.get<std::vector<Car>>();
+  // because the compiler does not know whether to convert
+  // doc to an unsigned int or to a vector.
+  for(Car& c : cars) {
+    std::cout << c.year << std::endl;
+  }
+```
+
+By default, we support a wide range of standard templates such as
+`std::vector`,  `std::list`, `std::set`, `std::stack`, `std:queue`,
+`std:deque`, `std::priority_queue`, `std::unordered_set`, `std::multiset`,
+`std::unordered_multiset`, `std::unique_ptr`, `std::shared_ptr`, `std::optional`,
+etc. They are handled automatically.
+
+E.g., you can recover an `std::unique_ptr<Car>` like so:
+```C++
+int main() {
+  auto const json = R"( { "make": "Toyota", "model": "Camry",  "year": 2018,
+       "tire_pressure": [ 40.1, 39.9 ] })"_padded;
+  simdjson::ondemand::parser parser;
+  simdjson::ondemand::document doc = parser.iterate(json);
+  std::unique_ptr<Car> c(doc);
+  std::cout << c->make << std::endl;
+  return EXIT_SUCCESS;
+}
+```
+
+You may also conditionally fill in `std::optional` values.
+
+```C++
+
+  padded_string json =
+      R"( { "car1": { "make": "Toyota", "model": "Camry",  "year": 2018,
+       "tire_pressure": [ 40.1, 39.9 ] }
+})"_padded;
+  ondemand::parser parser;
+  ondemand::document doc = parser.iterate(json);
+  std::optional<Car> car;
+  error = doc["key not found"].get<std::optional<Car>>().get(car);
+  // car has no value, error != simdjson::SUCCESS
+  error = doc["car1"].get<std::optional<Car>>().get(car);
+  // car has value Car{"Toyota", "Camry", 2018, {40.1f, 39.9f}}
+  // error is simdjson::SUCCESS
+```
+
+And so forth.
+
+Advanced users may want to overwrite the defaults provided by the simdjson library.
+Suppose for example that you want to construct an instance of `std::list<Car>`, but
+you also want to filter out any car made by Toyota. You may provide your own
+`tag_invoke` function:
+
+```c++
+namespace simdjson {
+// suppose we want to filter out all Toyotas
+template <typename simdjson_value>
+auto tag_invoke(deserialize_tag, simdjson_value &val, std::list<Car>& car) {
+  ondemand::array arr;
+  auto error = val.get_array().get(arr);
+  if (error) {
+    return error;
+  }
+  for (auto v : arr) {
+    Car c;
+    if ((error = v.get<Car>().get(c))) {
+      return error;
+    }
+    if(c.make != "Toyota") {
+      car.push_back(c);
+    }
+  }
+  return simdjson::SUCCESS;
+}
+}
+```
+
+With this code, deserializing an `std::list<Car>` instance would capture only the cars
+that are not made by Toyota.

 - Given a field `field` in an object, calling `field.key()` is often faster than `field.unescaped_key()` so if you do not need an unescaped `std::string_view` instance, prefer `field.key()`. Similarly, we expect `field.escaped_key()` to be faster than `field.unescaped_key()` even though both return a `std::string_view` instance.
 - 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` directive, you must set it manually (e.g., `-DNDEBUG`).

+You can safely ignore these warnings. Or you can call `simdjson::pad(std::string&)` to pad the

+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": "Toyota", "model": "Tercel", "year": 1999, "tire_pressure": [ 29.8, 30.0, 30.2, 30.5 ] }

+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.

+   *
+   * If you pass a mutable std::string reference (std::string&), the parser will seek to extend
+   * its capacity to SIMDJSON_PADDING bytes beyond the end of the string.
+   *
+   * Whenever you pass an std::string reference, the parser will access the bytes beyond the end of
+   * the string but before the end of the allocated memory (std::string::capacity()).
+   * If you are using a sanitizer that checks for reading uninitialized bytes or std::string's
+   * container-overflow checks, you may encounter sanitizer warnings.
+   * You can safely ignore these warnings. Or you can call simdjson::pad(std::string&) to pad the
+   * string with SIMDJSON_PADDING spaces: this function returns a simdjson::padding_string_view
+   * which can be be passed to the parser's parse function:
+   *
+   *    std::string json = R"({ "foo": 1 } { "foo": 2 } { "foo": 3 } )";
+   *    element doc = parser.parse(simdjson::pad(json));
