# format

a low-level string formatting library that takes arbitrary input types as interfaces, and arguments as a struct. this does not contain any printf-like argument parsing, only log-friendly serialization of arbitrary input arguments. (noting that our output is noticably more log-friendly for struct / map types than stdlib "fmt").
