 ====== Custom JavaScript Decoder Upload Requirements ======
-To ensure compatibility, follow these guidelines when uploading a custom JavaScript decoder. The decoder function should be denoted as `Decoder(bytes, port)`.

-  *** GraalVM Support**: Ensure that the JavaScript code used in the decoder is compatible with GraalVM's JavaScript engine. GraalVM supports most ECMAScript 5.1 features and some ECMAScript 2015 (ES6) features. Refer to GraalVM's documentation for the specific version details and supported features.
+      * **Return Value**: The decoder must return an **object** that represents the desired tag structure of the UDT.

+      * **bytes**: This parameter represents the input data that needs to be decoded. It is an array of bytes that is gathered from an uplink's payload.

+- **Runtime Limitations**: Be aware of the runtime limitations and constraints of GraalVM. For example, certain features or APIs available in other JavaScript engines may not be present in GraalVM. Refer to the GraalVM documentation for any restrictions you should consider while uploading your custom decoder.
-- **Dependency Management**: Ensure that any external dependencies used in your JavaScript code are compatible with GraalVM. Double-check that any libraries or modules you include are compatible with the JavaScript engine in GraalVM.
+- **Testing**: Before uploading the custom JavaScript decoder, thoroughly test it in a separate environment. Ensure that it performs as expected and adheres to the function signature mentioned above.
