A modern programming language that makes developers happier.

kotlinlang

The kdoc of `Json.parse` states:
```
    /**
     * Deserializes given json [string] into a corresponding object of type [T] using provided [deserializer].
     * @throws [JsonException] subclass in case of serialization error.
     */
```

However upon missing field it throws a `kotlinx.serialization.MissingFieldException`. Is this a known issue?

i assume the field in question has a default value ?

i think nonstrict allows extra fields that do not ft into the serializable classes, it cannot create data from scratch to fill your serializable classes

misread that exception and removed my reply :slightly_smiling_face:

The documentation is wrong here. It's clearly not a `JsonException` :thinking_face:

in that case probably best to create a issue on github
