Firstly, congratulations for the awesome project. I started using it two days ago and it is very fast and simple.

I would like to use kotlinx.serialization instead of Jackson. How can I do it?

You can configure the JavalinJson plugin:

JavalinJson.toJsonMapper = object : ToJsonMapper {
     override fun map(obj: Any) =  { /* Your implementation here */ }
}

JavalinJson.fromJsonMapper = object : FromJsonMapper {
    override fun <T> map(json: String, targetClass: Class<T>) { /* Your implementation here */ }
}

These will then be used when calling ctx.json() or ctx.body<MyClass>().
