How can I add serialization dependencies to my kotlin project?

Question

I am trying to add json serialization dependencies in my kotlin project but it doesnt work and lots of error appear when I sync project. I dont know why. I did as in the serialization dependency addition section on the kotlin web site, but it didn't work. how do I add it to my codes ?.

Build.Gragle(project)

// Top-level build file where you can add configuration options common to all sub-projects/modules.
buildscript {
    ext {
        compose_version = '1.0.1'
    }
    repositories {

        google()
        mavenCentral()
    }
    dependencies {
        classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:7.2.2'
        classpath "org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-gradle-plugin:1.5.21"
        classpath 'com.google.dagger:hilt-android-gradle-plugin:2.44'
        

        // NOTE: Do not place your application dependencies here; they belong
        // in the individual module build.gradle files
    }
}

task clean(type: Delete) {
    delete rootProject.buildDir
}

EDIT

I found the solution

In this case, you need to install whatever Kotlin version is. In my case like this

my kotlin version is : 1.5.21

and I added this dependency in gradle.plugin(module)

plugins {
    
    id 'org.jetbrains.kotlin.plugin.serialization' version '1.5.21'

}

and I added this

dependencies {
    implementation 'org.jetbrains.kotlinx:kotlinx-serialization-json:1.4.1'
}

and that's it, now you can use serialization in your data class like this.

for example

import kotlinx.serialization.Serializable

    @Serializable
    data class example(
        val example: String,
       
    )

How can I add serialization dependencies to my kotlin project?
