💖 Data::Serializer::XML::Simple — the manual page, bestie edition 💖

🌸 NAME 🌸

Data::Serializer::XML::Simple — Creates bridge between Data::Serializer and XML::Simple

like… it's giving matchmaker. it's giving "you two should talk". 💅

---

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

use Data::Serializer::XML::Simple;

that's literally it. one line. iconic. no cap. 🫶

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so this Module is used internally to Data::Serializer — it's not really out here living its own main character life, it's the backstage crew making the show happen. 🧚

Any options are passed through to XML::Simple. like, all of them. it does not gatekeep. so if you wanna know what those options even are, go see XML::Simple(3) for details. 📖

and the two methods it brings to the party, fr fr:

• serialize — Wrapper to normalize serializer method name
• deserialize — Wrapper to normalize deserializer method name

just wrappers. normalizing. keeping the method names cute and consistent so the parent module doesn't have to stress. lowkey genius behavior. 👑
