MessagePack for C# (.NET, .NET Core, Unity, Xamarin) VS Ceras

Given it's a binary serialization framework, it should not be too difficult, because the domain is well-explored and numerous libraries exist in C# which address same goals that Fury does.

More popular/newer examples are https://github.com/Cysharp/MemoryPack (which is similar to Fury with its own spec, C#-code first schema), https://github.com/MessagePack-CSharp/MessagePack-CSharp or even gRPC / Protobuf tooling https://github.com/grpc/grpc-dotnet

With Unity/IL2CPP stuff: For general-purpose serialization libraries like JSON, you sometimes need to provide hints to make sure types are included: https://github.com/jilleJr/Newtonsoft.Json-for-Unity/wiki/Fi...

For schema serialization on known types, there are codegen tools (i.e. moc for MessagePack): https://github.com/neuecc/MessagePack-CSharp

MessagePack is migrating to Rosalyn code generators, so basically invisible codegen. Cysharp's newer serialization library, MessagePack, already uses this: https://github.com/Cysharp/MemoryPack

Thanks, I'm sure I'll need it, though I do have my own platform with serialization set up already that I'm hoping I can port relatively easily (It's backended with MessagePack C# which is a lovely serializer for Unity.)

In the Road map of features #119 for MessagePack-CSharp, they checked the box for:

Try MessagePack for serialization. It will help to reduce the size of the message and the time of serialization.

I mentioned JSON, but there are many formats that are much more efficient. I can mention FlatBuffers, MessagePack and ProtoBuf. These are the ones I've used myself, and personally I'm most comfortable with MessagePack and ProtoBuf. I don't think the performance would be an issue if you had to choose between these three, it's mostly the API that is different.

After some searching, I finally settled on Ceras. It works just as well out of the box as the Odin serializer. I compared the two with the same generated data. Ceras is faster, but generates larger files, Odin is much slower to read, but about 3/5 the size of Ceras. Each has advantages and disadvantages. I am now a new godot developer and am very happy.

So the answer is no, there aren't. If you want to add that kind of security risk to your application you can use ceras
