FAQ

What converters are available?

• asv-to-usv & usv-to-asv

• csv-to-usv & usv-to-csv

• json-to-usv & usv-to-json

• xlsx-to-usv & usv-to-xlsx

When to use this command?

Use this command when you want to convert from USV to ASV.

A typical use case is when you have USV data, such as a collection of units and records, and you want to convert it to ASV data, such as for a spreadsheet import.

Our real-world use case is converting a bunch of document-oriented data from a variety of programs to a variety of data formats, spreadsheets, and databases.

Why use USV instead of ASV?

See the documentation for USV.

Is USV aiming to become a standard?

Yes, USV is submitted to IETF.org as an Internet-Draft work in progress: link.

Can I build my own USV tools?

Yes, and you may freely use the USV RFC and USV Rust crate.
