# Pocket.Json
[](https://www.nuget.org/packages/Pocket.Json)
_A simple JSON serialization/deserialization library that is pretty fast._
_(It doesn't match 100% of JSON spec, and was made just for learning purposes.)_
## Usage
### Data Format
```c#
// Class should be `public`.
public class Point
{
// Fields should be just `public`.
[Json] public int X;
[Json] public int Y;
// A public parameterless constructor should be defined (either implicitly or explicitly).
public Point() { }
}
```
### Serialize
```c#
var json = new Point { X = 1, Y = 2 }.ToJson();
```
### Deserialize
```c#
var point = json.FromJson();
```
## Benchmarks
