Write JSON messages in C# using core .NET?

Question

Is there built-in .NET support for building JSON messages (with escaping)? I can't use external libraries like JSON.NET because of binary size.

Thanks!

Edit: I was hoping to just have a message constructor without the constraint of creating a strict datatype, but I guess it's good enough.

Edit2: Actually it's not good enough. I'm looking to write JSON messages that don't correspond in a naive 1:1 way to a data structure, but it looks like I just have to write my own escaping, a la this answer
