Module encoding 

Traits and algorithms for internal data encoding Traits and encoding algorithms used by this crate.

Encoding relies on a notion of fixed and dynamically sized data. Fixed size encoding is performed via custom algorithm heavily based on const generics. Dynamically sized data encoding can be overriden by users of this crate, with a custom default implementation.

By default this crate provides an implementation of AsDynSizeBytes trait for many types. But if one wants to use their own serialization engine for unsized data (for example, Speedy), they can do the following:

// Cargo.toml
 
[dependencies]
ic-stable-memory = { version: "0.4", features = ["custom_dyn_encoding"] } 

This will disable all default implementations of AsDynSizeBytes trait allowing you to implement this trait by yourself in whatever way you prefer.
