### Status
Zstd compression format has reached "Final status". It means it is planned to become the official stable zstd format tagged `v1.0`. The reason it's not yet tagged `v1.0` is that it currently performs its "validation period", making sure the format holds all its promises and nothing was missed.
Zstd library also offers legacy decoder support. Any data compressed by any version >= `v0.1` is decodable now and in the future.
The library has been validated using strong [fuzzer tests](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fuzz_testing), including both [internal tools](programs/fuzzer.c) and [external ones](http://lcamtuf.coredump.cx/afl). It's able to withstand hazard situations, including invalid inputs.
As a consequence, Zstandard is considered safe for, and is currently used in, production environments.
Zstandard is currently deployed within Facebook. It is used daily to compress and decompress very large amount of data in multiple formats and use cases.
Zstandard is considered safe for production environments.
