🎯 Core Features

🚀 Performance & Reliability

• High-Speed Serialization: Consistently ranks among the fastest C# binary serializers
• Low Memory Footprint: Minimal GC pressure and memory allocation
• By-Reference Deserialization: Deserialize directly into existing objects to eliminate allocation overhead
• Thread-Safe Operations: Fully concurrent serialization/deserialization without external locking
• Data Integrity: Built-in type checking ensures data consistency

🧩 Comprehensive Type Support

• Primitives & Built-ins: Full support for all C# primitive types (int, float, DateTime, etc.)
• Modern C# Features: records, record structs, structs, classes, and generics
• Collections: Any IEnumerable<T> including List<T>, Dictionary<TKey,TValue>, HashSet<T>, ConcurrentDictionary<TKey,TValue>
• Advanced Generics: Complex nested types like Dictionary<string, List<CustomType[]>>
• Value Types: ValueTuple, Tuple, KeyValuePair<TKey,TValue>, Nullable<T>

🎮 Unity & Cross-Platform

• Unity Native Types: Vector3, Quaternion, Matrix4x4, and other Unity-specific data types
• Cross-Assembly Support: Serialize types across different .NET assemblies and projects
• Platform Agnostic: Works seamlessly across different .NET implementations

⚙️ Advanced Control

• Polymorphism: Interface and abstract class serialization with type preservation
• Custom Constructors: [NinoConstructor] for immutable types and factory patterns
• Versioning & Migration: [NinoMember] ordering and [NinoFormerName] for backward compatibility
• Privacy Control: [NinoType(true)] to include private/protected members
• Selective Serialization: [NinoIgnore] to exclude specific fields
• String Optimization: [NinoUtf8] for efficient UTF-8 string handling

📖 Quick Start

Installation

Standard .NET Projects:

dotnet add package Nino

Unity Projects (via OpenUPM):

openupm add com.jasonxudeveloper.nino

Basic Usage

[NinoType]
public class GameData
{
    public int Score;
    public string PlayerName;
    public DateTime LastPlayed;
}

// Serialize
var data = new GameData { Score = 1000, PlayerName = "Player1", LastPlayed = DateTime.Now };
byte[] bytes = NinoSerializer.Serialize(data);

// Deserialize
var restored = NinoDeserializer.Deserialize<GameData>(bytes);
