You don't really need serializer.
Just use public readonly in your model class and it works without the serializer package:

declare(strict_types=1);


namespace App\Model;

final readonly class Starship
{
    public function __construct(
        public int    $id,
        public string $name,
        public string $class,
        public string $captain,
        public string $status,
    ) {
    }
}

Hello,

This question can be simple for you but I am asking to understand clearly. Sorry for this.
My question is are we creating a class which name is Starship and we are inserting the values onto that class right?

I mean by doing new Starship in controller, actually are we sending our values to Model Starship class to hold them?

thank you

the way Starship model is created:

// simplified
class Starship
{
    public function __construct(
        private string $name
    ){
    }

    public function getName(): string
    {
        return $this->name;
    }
}

Is this some sort of recommended or best practice way to create models ? Because for now I feel better in keeping it simple and coding class the old fashion way:

class x 
{
    public $y;
    public function __construct($y){
        $this->$y = $y;
    } 
}

The latter way I simply get the end result and I don't need to learn about serializer and serialization for now and I will learn it if/when I need to. Or is this essential part of symfony and shouldn't be skipped ?
