I was able to change `float` to `Decimal` using `msgspec`. The key is you need to generate a `Struct` from `SCHEMA` messages. The code is not elegant but working. If...

Hi @s7clarke10 , That is great news. Thanks for sharing how you are using `msgspec` in singer-python. I will defiantly be looking it over to see how you leveraged `msgspec`.

@edgarrmondragon, I was wondering since there is a `SingerReader` class in `singer_sdk.io_base.` What do you think of a `SingerWriter` class being added to that file and moving the msgspec `encoder`,...

@edgarrmondragon I believe this PR is passing all the tests now. I did have to setup `xfail` for a few legacy tests. They run fine alone but fail when run...

@edgarrmondragon Yay!! 🥳there are lightning bolts ⚡ in the [CodSpeed Performace Analysis](https://github.com/meltano/sdk/pull/1784/checks?check_run_id=19458784139) report for the new JSON encode decode tests.
