# Reserializer

Reserializer intercepts field type changes to/from bind type from/to standard type and applies a reserialization logic to transfer the data between these types keeping it the same.

When enabling the Reserializer, the very first compilation may take longer than normal, this is because Binding System is creating a database of currently defined fields to be able to detect changes.

{% hint style="info" %}
For the serializer to work properly, assets need to be serialized in text mode.
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="warning" %}
The logic cannot perform reserialization on `[SerializeReference]` fields as of now.
{% endhint %}
