# Extending Support for any data type

By default, we support to serialize any data with the help of reflection.&#x20;

However, we provide an option to avoid reflection and most of the data types we don't use reflection and is achieved via Data Providers

## Data Providers

Data Providers are concrete classes which has the required code for serializing and deserializing a particular data type.

We ship with many commonly use data providers along with the plugin and you can create for your custom classes with the help of the tool we ship with the plugin.
