JSON
JavaScript Object Notation
JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) is a lightweight, text-based data interchange format designed for easy readability and parsing. It uses a simple structure of key-value pairs and arrays to represent data, making it an efficient choice for data transmission between servers and web applications. JSON syntax follows these rules:
- Data is represented in name/value pairs
- Curly braces {} enclose objects
- Square brackets [] denote arrays
- Commas separate data elements
- Double quotes surround keys and string values
