Without more context that is unanswerable. What target
language/runtime/framework? What target scenarios / encoding / wire format?
But in my experience: most libraries are opinionated and aimed at a
specific serialization scenario. If your scenario is different and no
library exists: it may be bespoke, and/or you might get to become the
missing library author.
