### How to create Data Structures which can be serialized?

[](#how-to-create-data-structures-which-can-be-serialized)

Please check the [Marshal Serializer README](https://github.com/Kingson-de/marshal-serializer/blob/master/README.md) for more information.

### How to use the Marshal XML Serializer library?

[](#how-to-use-the-marshal-xml-serializer-library)

The library provides several static methods to create your XML data once you defined the data structures.

```
Hello World!';

$flexibleData = new FlexibleData(MarshalXml::deserializeXmlToData($xml));

$flexibleData['root']['tag'] = 'some other text';

$modifiedXml = MarshalXml::serialize($flexibleData);
```
