Utf8Json is a high-performance, zero-allocation JSON serializer for C# that reads and writes directly to UTF8 binary, targeting .NET, .NET Core, Unity, and Xamarin. The project is now archived, and users are directed to a community fork.

Use cases

  • serialize objects to json in c#
  • fastest json serializer for .net
  • zero allocation json serialization
  • json serializer for unity
  • convert objects to utf8 json bytes
  • high performance json parsing in c#

When to choose

  • you need maximum JSON serialization throughput in .NET or Unity with minimal allocations
  • you write directly to UTF8 streams or byte arrays and want to avoid encoding overhead

When to avoid

  • you want an actively maintained library - the project is archived and a community fork is recommended
  • you need UTF16 string-based serialization or broad modern .NET feature support
