+Implement Snake Case Naming Strategy
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+When using ``bson-kotlinx`` package v5.4 or later, you can direct the driver to
+serialize data class fields names written in camel case to snake case in MongoDB.
+The following example shows how to create and register a custom codec
+to convert data class field names into snake case by setting the
+``bsonNamingStrategy`` parameter in a codec:
