std.serialization

[burner]

D has numerous serialization frameworks. From std.json to std.csv over protobuf to Vibe.d's own serialization framework.

The goal of this project is to implement a flexible (de)serialization framework that can be used as a standardized building block for various serialization related things. One important goal would be to define how a user-specified type has to work in order to make it serializable, as well as to allow the end-user (e.g. a user of std.json) to change the serialization of third-party types that cannot themselves be modified (i.e. let them define their own policies).

Starting points:

• Vibe.d's serialization framework
• Orange framework
