A crate for packing booleans

crates.io

The standard bool type is always a full byte. This becomes a problem when multiple booleans are in the same struct, as 2 bools are stored as 2 bytes, which is unnecessary and wastes space.

This crate exists to solve that problem. The PackedBools type contains 8 booleans at the cost of only a single byte of memory.

no_std

This crate is fully no_std compatible.
