Hello, World! I need to serialize a map of string to "anything" (could be an object, could be an int, a string, etc.). What's a way to declare the custom Serializer for this? (in particular, what SerialDescriptor can I use?) Thanks!

I guess there's a simpler way than custom serializers: simply use Map<String, JsonElement> for this.

that is also just JsonObject

[bod]

not sure I understand what you mean

[bod]

oh I understand now 🙂 You mean Map<String, JsonElement> is the same as simply JsonObject since the keys of a json object are strings. Indeed! Good catch, thanks!
