Hi Angel! (Badass name btw!)
Thank you very much for reaching out! I knew this topic would come up at some point and I should likely express my views in JSON more clearly in the documentation.
I included the jsonOut
method as a convenience function for those times you need "quick and dirty" JSON output.
I explicitly chose not to include any meaningful JSON handlers or functionality beyond this because there isn't really a commonly accepted way of doing it. Thus, I figured it would be easiest to let people roll their own.
That said, if people were open to a dependency and could agree on a package. I would be more than happy to add full JSON support.
For the time being Ill update that documentation with a section on JSON to reflect my views on the subject.

I'll thank my mother for that 😆

Yeah I get that 😁
Got it then thanks!

Hey, I just discovered Falco and it looks pretty neat! I'll try to give it a run on the following days
I just have a question about JSON serialization/deserialization I saw that you are using the System.Text.Json API's
I believe I tried those previously in another project but ran into exceptions once I tried to deserialize option types as well as Discriminated Unions, with that in mind
Is it safe to just deserialize json?
if not, you might want to consider taking a look at https://github.com/Tarmil/FSharp.SystemTextJson which uses the same API's but with some F# sugar for those mentioned types
