How should I use the ZST manifest endpoint?

Fetch manifest JSON to pin fixture names, sizes, hashes, and MIME expectations in automated tests.

Why does this format have a category-specific hub?

A category-specific hub keeps assumptions aligned with practical workflows and related format alternatives.

ZST Format Hub

Zstandard archives (.zst) provide fast compression and decompression behavior. Use sample ZST files to test tool compatibility, extraction workflows, and throughput under different resource limits.

Implementation Notes

Use the manifest endpoint for deterministic fixture selection in CI, then validate MIME/type detection against actual parser output.

If this format appears in multiple categories, prefer category-specific hub pages to keep test assumptions aligned with real usage.
