What is JSON?

JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) is a lightweight data-interchange format that is easy for humans to read and write and easy for machines to parse and generate. It is based on a subset of the JavaScript Programming Language and is completely language-independent, making it an ideal format for data exchange between different systems.

Key Features

  • Human-Readable: The structured, text-based format is clear and easy to understand.
  • Structured Data: Uses key-value pairs and ordered lists (arrays) to represent complex data structures.
  • Wide Support: Natively supported by almost all modern programming languages and platforms, making it a universal standard for APIs and configuration files.
