Serde

Serialization framework for Rust

Rust / Systems · OSS/MIT · 10.8k

What's Good

Zero-overhead abstraction over formats. Derive macros minimize boilerplate. Format ecosystem covers JSON, YAML, TOML, and more. Customization is possible when needed.

The Catch

Compile times increase with heavy use. Error messages can be confusing. Some edge cases require manual implementation.

Verdict

The serialization library every Rust project uses.
