First steps and hello world with SharpSerializer you find in the tutorial on the SharpSerializer website.

Note 1: Since SharpSerializer v.2.12 all types are default serialized as AssemblyQualifiedName. If you are using any previous version and there are problems with the object deserialization, please activate at first serializing of type definitions as AssemblyQualifiedName. For more details please refer to the tutorial.

Note 2: SharpSerializer serializes only public properties. Fields are not serialized. If you like to serialize fields or private properties, they have to be wrapped in public properties.

Note 3: SharpSerializer can deserialize only types with public or private default constructor. The following document describes how to deserialize types without default constructor.
