Model binding doesn't state the default JSON input formatter

[eshadboltadr]

Description

The input formatters section in the page about ASP .NET Core MVC model binding says this:

By default, ASP.NET Core includes JSON based input formatters for handling JSON data.

It doesn't specify exactly what JSON input formatter library it uses. Does it use System.Text.Json.JsonSerializer or Newtonsoft.Json? How can I set a custom default JsonSerializerOptions for MVC model binding?

I think that this doc page should mention that it can be configured with

builder.Services.AddControllers().AddJsonOptions(options =>
{
    options.JsonSerializerOptions.Converters.Add(new JsonStringEnumConverter());
    options.JsonSerializerOptions.PropertyNamingPolicy=JsonNamingPolicy.CamelCase;
});
