An alias to a generic function taking an output range as its first argument and the value to be serialized as its second argument. The result of the serialization is written byte-wise into the output range.
An alias to a generic function taking a forward range as its first argument and a reference to the value that is to be deserialized.
The MIME type of the serialized representation.

UDA for using a custom serializer for the method return value.
Instead of using the default serializer (JSON), this allows to define custom serializers. Multiple serializers can be specified and will be matched against the Accept header of the HTTP request.
