+# Contributing to Serde
+
+Serde welcomes contribution from everyone. Here are the guidelines if you are
+thinking of helping us:
+
+## Contributions
+
+Contributions to Serde or its dependencies should be made in the form of GitHub
+pull requests. Each pull request will be reviewed by a core contributor
+(someone with permission to land patches) and either landed in the main tree or
+given feedback for changes that would be required. All contributions should
+follow this format, even those from core contributors.
+
+Should you wish to work on an issue, please claim it first by commenting on
+the GitHub issue that you want to work on it. This is to prevent duplicated
+efforts from contributors on the same issue.
+
+## Pull Request Checklist
+
+- Branch from the master branch and, if needed, rebase to the current master
+  branch before submitting your pull request. If it doesn't merge cleanly with
+  master you may be asked to rebase your changes.
+
+- Commits should be as small as possible, while ensuring that each commit is
+  correct independently (i.e., each commit should compile and pass tests). 
+
+- If your patch is not getting reviewed or you need a specific person to review
+  it, you can @-reply a reviewer asking for a review in the pull request or a
+  comment, or you can ask for a review in `#serde` on `irc.mozilla.org`.
+
+- Add tests relevant to the fixed bug or new feature.
+
+## Conduct
+
+In all Serde-related forums, we follow the [Rust Code of
+Conduct](https://www.rust-lang.org/conduct.html).  For escalation or moderation
+issues, please contact Erick (erick.tryzelaar@gmail.com) instead of the Rust
+moderation team.
+
+## Communication
+
+Beyond opening tickets on the
+[serde-rs/serde](https://github.com/serde-rs/serde) project, Serde contributors
+frequent the `#serde` channel on

+Simple Serde Example
+====================
+
+Here is a simple example that uses
+[serde_json](https://github.com/serde-rs/json), which uses Serde under the
+covers, to generate and parse JSON. First, lets start off with the `Cargo.toml`
+file:
+
+```toml
+[package]
+name = "serde_example"
+version = "0.1.0"
+authors = ["Erick Tryzelaar <erick.tryzelaar@gmail.com>"]
+
+[dependencies]
+serde_json = "*"
+```
+
+Next, the `src/main.rs` file itself:
+
+```rust,ignore
+extern crate serde_json;
+
+use std::collections::HashMap;
+use serde_json::Value;
+use serde_json::builder::{ArrayBuilder, ObjectBuilder};
+
+fn main() {
+    // Serde has support for many of the builtin Rust types, like arrays..:
+    let v = vec![1, 2];
+    let serialized = serde_json::to_string(&v).unwrap();
+    println!("serialized vec: {:?}", serialized);
+
+    let deserialized: Vec<u32> = serde_json::from_str(&serialized).unwrap();
+    println!("deserialized vec: {:?}", deserialized);
+
+    // ... and maps:
+    let mut map = HashMap::new();
+    map.insert("x".to_string(), 1);
+    map.insert("y".to_string(), 2);
+
+    let serialized = serde_json::to_string(&map).unwrap();
+    println!("serialized map: {:?}", serialized);
+
+    let deserialized: HashMap<String, u32> = serde_json::from_str(&serialized).unwrap();
+    println!("deserialized map: {:?}", deserialized);
+
+    // It also can handle complex objects:
+    let value = ObjectBuilder::new()
+        .insert("int", 1)
+        .insert("string", "a string")
+        .insert("array", ArrayBuilder::new()
+                .push(1)
+                .push(2)
+                .unwrap())
+        .unwrap();
+
+    let serialized = serde_json::to_string(&value).unwrap();
+    println!("serialized value: {:?}", serialized);
+
+    let deserialized: serde_json::Value = serde_json::from_str(&serialized).unwrap();
+    println!("deserialized value: {:?}", deserialized);
+}
+```
+
+This produces the following output when run:
+
+```
+% cargo run
+serialized vec: "[1,2]"
+deserialized vec: [1, 2]
+serialized map: "{\"y\":2,\"x\":1}"
+deserialized map: {"y": 2, "x": 1}
+serialized value: "{\"array\":[1,2],\"int\":1,\"string\":\"a string\"}"
+deserialized value: {"array":[1,2],"int":1,"string":"a string"}
+```
+
+Using Serde with Stable Rust and serde\_codegen
+===============================================
+
+The example before used `serde_json::Value` as the in-memory representation of
+the JSON value, but it's also possible for Serde to serialize to and from
+regular Rust types. However, the code to do this can be a bit complicated to
+write. So instead, Serde also has some powerful code generation libraries that
+work with Stable and Nightly Rust that eliminate much of the complexity of hand
+rolling serialization and deserialization for a given type.
+
+First lets see how we would use Stable Rust, which is currently a tad more
+complicated than Nightly Rust due to having to work around compiler plugins
+being unstable.  We will use `serde_codegen` which is based on the code
+generation library [syntex](https://github.com/serde-rs/syntex). First we need
+to setup the `Cargo.toml` that builds the project:
+
+```toml
+[package]
+name = "serde_example"
+version = "0.1.0"
+authors = ["Erick Tryzelaar <erick.tryzelaar@gmail.com>"]
+build = "build.rs"
+
+[build-dependencies]
+serde_codegen = "*"
+
+[dependencies]
+serde = "*"
+serde_json = "*"
+```
+
+Next, we define our source file, `src/main.rs.in`. Note this is a different
+extension than usual becaues we need to do code generation:
+
+```rust,ignore
+#[derive(Serialize, Deserialize, Debug)]
+struct Point {
+    x: i32,
+    y: i32,
+}
+
+fn main() {
+    let point = Point { x: 1, y: 2 };
+
+    let serialized = serde_json::to_string(&point).unwrap();
+    println!("{}", serialized);
+
+    let deserialized: Point = serde_json::from_str(&serialized).unwrap();
+    println!("{:?}", deserialized);
+}
+```
+
+To finish up the main source code, we define a very simple `src/main.rs` that
+uses the generated code.
+
+`src/main.rs`:
+
+```rust,ignore
+extern crate serde;
+extern crate serde_json;
+
+include!(concat!(env!("OUT_DIR"), "/main.rs"));
+```
+
+The last step is to actually drive the code generation, with the `build.rs` script:
+
+```rust,ignore
+extern crate serde_codegen;
+
+use std::env;
+use std::path::Path;
+
+pub fn main() {
+    let out_dir = env::var_os("OUT_DIR").unwrap();
+
+    let src = Path::new("src/main.rs.in");
+    let dst = Path::new(&out_dir).join("main.rs");
+
+    serde_codegen::expand(&src, &dst).unwrap();
+}
+```
+
+All this produces this when run:
+
+```
+% cargo run
+{"x":1,"y":2}
+Point { x: 1, y: 2 }
+```
+
+While this works well with Stable Rust, be aware that the error locations
+currently are reported in the generated file instead of in the source file.

+Design Considerations and tradeoffs for Serializers and Deserializers
+=====================================================================
+
+Serde serialization and deserialization implementations are written in such a
+way that they err on being able to represent more values, and also provide
+better error messages when they are passed an incorrect type to deserialize
+from. For example, by default, it is a syntax error to deserialize a `String`
+into an `Option<String>`. This is implemented such that it is possible to
+distinguish between the values `None` and `Some(())`, if the serialization
+format supports option types.
+
+However, many formats do not have option types, and represents optional values
+as either a `null`, or some other value. Serde `Serializer`s and
+`Deserializer`s can opt-in support for this. For serialization, this is pretty
+easy. Simply implement these methods:
+
+```rust,ignore
+...
+
+    fn visit_none(&mut self) -> Result<(), Self::Error> {
+        self.visit_unit()
+    }
+
+    fn visit_some<T>(&mut self, value: T) -> Result<(), Self::Error> {
+        value.serialize(self)
+    }
+...
+```
+
+For deserialization, this can be implemented by way of the
+`Deserializer::visit_option` hook, which presumes that there is some ability to peek at what is the
+next value in the serialized token stream. This following example is from
+[serde_tests::TokenDeserializer](https://github.com/serde-rs/serde/blob/master/serde_tests/tests/token.rs#L435-L454),
+where it checks to see if the next value is an `Option`, a `()`, or some other
+value:
+
+```rust,ignore
+...
+
+    fn visit_option<V>(&mut self, mut visitor: V) -> Result<V::Value, Error>
+        where V: de::Visitor,
+    {
+        match self.tokens.peek() {
+            Some(&Token::Option(false)) => {
+                self.tokens.next();
+                visitor.visit_none()
+            }
+            Some(&Token::Option(true)) => {
+                self.tokens.next();
+                visitor.visit_some(self)
+            }
+            Some(&Token::Unit) => {
+                self.tokens.next();
+                visitor.visit_none()
+            }
+            Some(_) => visitor.visit_some(self),
+            None => Err(Error::EndOfStreamError),
+        }
+    }
+
+...

+Using in `no_std` crates
+========================
+
+The core `serde` package defines a number of features to enable usage in a
+variety of freestanding environments. Enable any or none of the following
+features, and use `default-features = false` in your `Cargo.toml`:
+
+- `alloc` (implies `nightly`)
+- `collections` (implies `alloc` and `nightly`)
+- `std` (default)
+
+If you only use `default-features = false`, you will receive a stock `no_std`
+serde with no support for any of the collection types.
+
+Upgrading from Serde 0.6
+========================
+
+* `#[serde(skip_serializing_if_none)]` was replaced with `#[serde(skip_serializing_if="Option::is_none")]`.
+* `#[serde(skip_serializing_if_empty)]` was replaced with `#[serde(skip_serializing_if="Vec::is_empty")]`.
