+Zerolog's API is designed to provide both a great developer experience and stunning [performance](#benchmarks). Its unique chaining API allows zerolog to write JSON (or CBOR) log events by avoiding allocations and reflection.
 
 Uber's [zap](https://godoc.org/go.uber.org/zap) library pioneered this approach. Zerolog is taking this concept to the next level with a simpler to use API and even better performance.
 
-To keep the code base and the API simple, zerolog focuses on JSON logging only. Pretty logging on the console is made possible using the provided (but inefficient) `zerolog.ConsoleWriter`.

+## Binary Encoding
+
+In addition to the default JSON encoding, `zerolog` can produce binary logs using the [cbor](http://cbor.io) encoding. The choice of encoding can be decided at compile time using the build tag `binary_log` as follow:

+```
+go build -tags binary_log .
