Answer
@JsonFormat customizes the format of date fields during JSON serialization.
The @JsonFormat annotation lets you define how date and time fields are serialized into JSON. This is crucial when integrating with systems expecting dates in a specific format. For example, you might need to serialize a LocalDate field as 'yyyy-MM-dd' instead of the default format.
