| * Serialize Kotlin objects to JSON strings using the [`encodeToString()`](https://kotlinlang.org/api/kotlinx.serialization/kotlinx-serialization-json/kotlinx.serialization.json/-json/encode-to-string.html) function. | ||
| * Deserialize JSON strings back to Kotlin objects with the [`decodeFromString()`](https://kotlinlang.org/api/kotlinx.serialization/kotlinx-serialization-json/kotlinx.serialization.json/-json/decode-from-string.html) function. | ||
| * Work directly with the [`JsonElement`](https://kotlinlang.org/api/kotlinx.serialization/kotlinx-serialization-json/kotlinx.serialization.json/-json-element/) when handling complex JSON structures using the [`encodeToJsonElement()`](https://kotlinlang.org/api/kotlinx.serialization/kotlinx-serialization-json/kotlinx.serialization.json/encode-to-json-element.html) and the [`decodeFromJsonElement()`](https://kotlinlang.org/api/kotlinx.serialization/kotlinx-serialization-json/kotlinx.serialization.json/decode-from-json-element.html) functions. |

I see we can nicely add encodeToStream/decodeFromStream to the list here. IMO it's OK to add a separate page for them + Okio integration

yes it definitely fits neatly here 👍
- Use JVM streams with the
encodeToStream().decodeFromStream(), and.decodeToSequence()functions to work with JSON directly from input and output streams.

Great. Oh, and Okio's encodeToSink/decodeFromSource can also go there
