Day-old at best. Try it dunked in something stronger.
Summary
Skir is a data description language and framework that aims to provide Protocol Buffers-like functionality with improved developer experience. It allows developers to define data types, constants, and APIs, then generates code for serialization/deserialization and remote procedure calls. The article demonstrates Skir's capabilities through code examples showing immutable object creation, round-trip JSON serialization, and RPC invocation.
