## Module yaml.serialization
## =========================
##
## This is the most high-level API of NimYAML. It enables you to parse YAML
## character streams directly into native YAML types and vice versa. It builds
## on top of the low-level parser and presenter APIs.
##
## It is possible to define custom construction and serialization procs for any
## type. Please consult the serialization guide on the NimYAML website for more
## information.
