//! Specify the format and how lenient the deserialization is

/// Specify how to serialize/deserialize a type

/// The format specifier allows to configure how a value is serialized/deserialized.
/// For example, you can serialize a timestamp as an integer using the UNIX epoch, as a string containing an integer, or as a string using ISO 8601.
/// This [`Format`] traits allows more flexibility in configuring the format without the need to create a new type for each case.
