This is a release candidate of 1.1.0 version. Note that final 1.1.0 version may include more features and bugfixes,
which would be listed in the corresponding changelog.

Kotlin version requirement updated

Due to changes in calling conventions between compiler plugin and serialization core runtime, this release requires
Kotlin version at least 1.4.30-M1 (we recommend using 1.4.30 release version). However, these changes should not affect your code, because only deprecated functions were removed from public API.
See corresponding PR for the details.

Experimental support for inline classes (IR only)

Using 1.1.0-RC, you can mark inline classes as @Serializable and use them in other serializable classes.
Unsigned integer types (UByte, UShort, UInt and ULong) are serializable as well and have special support in JSON.
This feature requires Kotlin compiler 1.4.30-RC and enabling new IR compilers for JS and JVM.

You can learn more in the documentation and corresponding pull request.
