I have some multiplatform code that generates JSON. However, sometimes, the JSON is slightly different in ways that doesn't matter (e.g. one system writes 1 and another writes 1.0). Could KotlinX.Serialization be used to deserialize multiple JSON representations and tell me if they are equal or not?

[ephemient]

whenever they're equivalent depends on how they're used

[ephemient]

if you parse those into JsonElements, they'll be unequal

[CLOVIS]

Is there a way to parse these such that they are equal?

Sure, you could parse them as doubles, for example. Or even use a custom deserializer with logic to normalize such entries.
