A runtime library that makes usage of code generated by kotlinx.serialization compiler plugin. Contains core serialization API, as well as serializers for standard library classes, and ready for use JSON format implementation. Other formats implementations (Protobuf, CBOR) are provided by separate artifacts, but included to this document for integrity.
