Skip the Embedded Filesystem with the TAR-like UTFS Format
If you need to store some data on a resource-constrained embedded platform, the prospect of dragging in a dependency for something like FAT filesystem access to flash or other storage medium can seem rather daunting. Not only is your binary size now significantly larger, the overhead of these filesystems is also not insignificant as they were not really designed for this type of environment.
