About:
Jrsonnet is a high-performance Rust implementation of the Jsonnet data templating language. It provides a command-line interface for evaluating Jsonnet files to generate JSON output. The tool focuses on speed, strictness, and correctness, making it a robust alternative to the original C++ implementation.

Key Features:

High performance execution via Rust
Strict evaluation mode for catching errors early
Support for the full Jsonnet language specification
Deterministic output for reliable builds

Use Cases:

Generating Kubernetes manifests from reusable templates
Managing complex configuration files for infrastructure
Automating JSON configuration generation for applications

Alternatives:

go-jsonnet – Go implementation; Jrsonnet is often faster and offers stricter evaluation modes
jsonnet (cpp) – The original reference implementation; Jrsonnet provides a modern, memory-safe alternative
