Can you explain nested serializers?

Nested serializers allow you to represent relationships between models. For example, if you have a Book model with an Author, you can serialize the author details within the book serializer.

How do I implement custom validation in serializers?

You can implement custom validation by overriding the validate method in your serializer class. This allows you to add specific checks for your fields.

What about using serializers with viewsets?

You can use serializers with viewsets to handle CRUD operations seamlessly. The viewset will automatically use the serializer for input validation and output formatting.
