+A small Python 3.5+ library for decoding ASP.NET viewstate.
+
+Viewstate is a method used in the ASP.NET framework to persist changes to a web form across postbacks. It is usually saved on a hidden form field:
+
+.. code-block:: html
+
+   <input type="hidden" name="__VIEWSTATE" id="__VIEWSTATE" value="/wEP...">
+
+Decoding the view state can be useful in penetration testing on ASP.NET applications, as well as revealing more information that can be used to efficiently scrape web pages.
