Simple API like the json or pickle modules.
Support many CBOR tags with stdlib objects.
Generic tag decoding.
Shared value references including cyclic references.
String references compact encoding with repeated strings replaced with indices.
Optional C module backend tested on big- and little-endian architectures.
Extensible tagged value handling using tag_hook and object_hook on decode and default on encode.
