kotlinx.serialization 1.0
summary
kotlinx.serialization 1.0 ships as a multiplatform, reflectionless library with a compiler plugin and stable, binary‑compatible core. Highlights: DSL-based Json configuration replaces brittle data‑class constructors, coerceInputValues treats JSON nulls as missing to apply Kotlin defaults, polymorphic deserialization supports sealed hierarchies and offers a SerializersModule default handler for unknown discriminators, and encode/decode naming unifies APIs (encodeToString/decodeFromString). JVM io streaming and inline class support are planned and migration helpers automate most renames.
