Deserializer

A deserializer is a tool or process that converts data stored in a specific format, often transmitted over a network or saved in a file, back into a usable form for a program. Think of it as the reverse of serialization—where complex objects or information are turned into a format suitable for storage or transfer. Deserialization takes this format and reconstructs the original objects or data structures, enabling computer programs to understand and work with the information. It's essential for data exchange between different systems or components.
