CoffeeParser

A module created specifically for the purpose of storing unsupported datatypes into datastores easier and more effective than just tables - string values!

Encode tables full of Roblox Datatypes into primitive tables and Decode primitive tables back into those full of Roblox Datatypes.

Created with the idea that we have only 4MiB per key in datastores and no native support for Roblox specific datatypes, such as Color3, UDim2, Vector3 and more (see full SupportedTypesList).
