Hi HN - I’m the author of Jsonic.

I built it after repeatedly running into friction with Python’s built-in json module when working with classes, dataclasses, nested objects, and type hints.

Jsonic focuses on: - Zero-boilerplate serialization and deserialization - Strict type validation with clear errors - Natural support for dataclasses, enums, tuples, sets, nested objects etc. - Optional field exclusion (e.g. hiding sensitive data) - Extra features like transient fields definition, suport for __slots__ classes etc. - Clean interop with Pydantic models

The goal is to make JSON round-tripping feel Pythonic and predictable without writing to_dict() / from_dict() everywhere.

I’d really appreciate feedback on the API design and tradeoffs.
