/**
 * Serialism is a library for serializing and deserializing JavaScript values.
 * It supports a wide range of data types, including objects, arrays, and primitive values.
 * It is designed to be fast and efficient, making it suitable for high-performance applications.
 * @example
 * ```typescript
 * import {Serialism} from 'serialism';
 * const serialism = new Serialism();
 * const buffer = serialism.serialize({ foo: 'bar' });
 * const obj = serialism.deserialize(buffer);
 * console.log(obj); // { foo: 'bar' }
 * ```
