Serde is the core Rust library for serialization and deserialization, allowing types to be converted into serializable data formats like JSON, YAML, or TOML, and vice versa. To implement the Serialize and Deserialize traits manually, you need to define a struct and manually call methods on the Serializer and Deserializer traits.
For example, the manual implementation of the Serialize trait for a Point struct involves creating a struct serializer state, serializing each field separately, and then ending the serialization process. The Deserialize trait implementation involves parsing a Rust type from a data format using methods on the Deserializer trait, such as deserialize_bool, deserialize_i32, and deserialize_struct.
