Detailed Description

Functions and classes for converting objects into a storable format.

Serialization refers to the process of transforming an object’s state or a data structure into a format suitable for storage or transmission (e.g., files, databases, or network streams). This allows data to be persisted and later reconstructed through deserialization, restoring the original structure and values.

Typical use cases include:

• Saving application state to disk
• Transferring data between processes or systems
