Helios

Helios is a library used to transform Json text into a model and vice versa. It’s based on part of the Jawn Parser built on Arrow, a Functional companion to Kotlin’s Standard Library.

Why Helios

Helios is one of the fastest Json parser libraries in Kotlin with the advantage of using the Arrow library for functional programming.
