Description
We have multiple enquiries regarding the incompatibility between gremlin-python and JanusGraph when using GraphBinary serializer:
https://github.com/JanusGraph/janusgraph/issues/4121
https://github.com/JanusGraph/janusgraph/discussions/4126
We should document that for non-natively supported drivers (everything but java and .Net drivers), users should only use GraphSON serializer but not GraphBinary serializer.
Contributor guide
Research direction
No documentation file is named; first locate the driver and serializer documentation, then read the existing guidance around GraphSON and GraphBinary. Update the relevant documentation to state the serializer limitation for non-natively supported drivers, and verify that the examples and wording distinguish Java and .NET drivers from third-party drivers.
