About JSON (JavaScript Object Notation)
JSON is the most widely used data interchange format on the web. Built on JavaScript syntax but language-independent, JSON represents data as human-readable key-value pairs, arrays, and nested objects. Virtually every API, configuration file, and web application uses JSON.
Strengths
- ✓ Human-readable and easy to understand
- ✓ Native support in every programming language
- ✓ Lightweight and fast to parse
- ✓ The standard for REST APIs
Limitations
- • No comments allowed in standard JSON
- • No date type (dates stored as strings)
- • Verbose for very large datasets
- • No schema enforcement by default
