Question: Should we keep using GSON or move to Jackson?

Opened this issue · 0 comments

The code currently uses the GSON library for all JSON stuff. Jackson, however, is generally more popular and broadly used. Should we migrate to Jackson? Doing so is a fairly large piece of work given that Jackson's custom serializer framework is much more complicated and there is a fair amount of custom serialization required. For now, GSON just works.
