Serializer

A serializer is a tool used in software development to convert complex data structures, like objects or database entries, into a format suitable for transmission or storage—such as JSON or XML. This process makes it easier to send data over networks or save it in files, and then later reconstruct it back into its original form. Think of serializers as translators that ensure data is correctly formatted and understandable between different systems or components, enabling seamless data exchange across various parts of an application or between different applications.
