C++20: char8_t

[igoloe]

Are there any plans to move to std::u8string once char8_t literals are default for u8? Or should this be adressed by clients defining the string_type as std::u8string?

[nlohmann]

This library targets C++11, so we cannot default to char8_t. I'm afraid the clients need to do that, but I have not tested this yet.

Ok. I will report about our experience. Thx.

[nlohmann]

That would be great!

Watch on this! std::u8string_view is serialized as number array now.. I have to explicitly convert it into std::string_view every time.
