SQLite as an Application File Format (2014)
While we are on the topic of file formats, I stumbled across a cool project the other day that aims to make parsing well-known binary formats much easier: <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;kaitai.io&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;kaitai.io&#x2F;</a><p>In high school I was obsessed with the game Starcraft. It came with its own map editor that would save to its own proprietary format. Some smart people came along and reverse engineered that format and allowed us to do all kinds of neat things we weren&#x27;t supposed to. I see modding communities for games are more popular than ever, and finding this project brought back lots of great memories.
