serde_with 1.3.0

//! De/Serialization of JSON
//!
//! This modules is only available if using the `json` feature of the crate.

/// Serialize value as string containing JSON
///
/// # Examples
///
/// ```
/// # extern crate serde;
/// # extern crate serde_derive;
/// # extern crate serde_json;
/// # extern crate serde_with;
/// #
/// # use serde_derive::{Deserialize, Serialize};

///     other_struct: B,
/// }
/// #[derive(Deserialize, Serialize)]
/// struct B {

///
/// # fn main() {
