<!-- Serde readme rendered on crates.io -->
**Serde is a framework for *ser*ializing and *de*serializing Rust data structures efficiently and generically.**
---
You may be looking for:
- [An overview of Serde](https://serde.rs/)
- [Data formats supported by Serde](https://serde.rs/#data-formats)
- [Setting up `#[derive(Serialize, Deserialize)]`](https://serde.rs/derive.html)
- [Examples](https://serde.rs/examples.html)
- [API documentation](https://docs.rs/serde)
- [Release notes](https://github.com/serde-rs/serde/releases)
## Serde in action
```rust
use serde::{Deserialize, Serialize};
#[derive(Serialize, Deserialize, Debug)]
struct Point {
x: i32,
y: i32,
}
fn main() {
let point = Point { x: 1, y: 2 };
// Convert the Point to a JSON string.
let serialized = serde_json::to_string(&point).unwrap();
// Prints serialized = {"x":1,"y":2}
println!("serialized = {}", serialized);
// Convert the JSON string back to a Point.
let deserialized: Point = serde_json::from_str(&serialized).unwrap();
// Prints deserialized = Point { x: 1, y: 2 }
println!("deserialized = {:?}", deserialized);
}
```
## Getting help
Serde is one of the most widely used Rust libraries so any place that Rustaceans
congregate will be able to help you out. For chat, consider trying the
[#rust-questions] or [#rust-beginners] channels of the unofficial community
Discord (invite: <https://discord.gg/rust-lang-community>, the [#rust-usage] or
[#beginners] channels of the official Rust Project Discord (invite:
<https://discord.gg/rust-lang>), or the [#general][zulip] stream in Zulip. For
asynchronous, consider the [\[rust\] tag on StackOverflow][stackoverflow], the
[/r/rust] subreddit which has a pinned weekly easy questions post, or the Rust
[Discourse forum][discourse]. It's acceptable to file a support issue in this
repo but they tend not to get as many eyes as any of the above and may get
closed without a response after some time.
