JSON (JavaScript Object Notation)

JSON stands for JavaScript Object Notation.

A JSON will be seen as a JavaScript object in Javascript. As specified by RFC 4627, JSON is a lightweight data interchange format based on a subset of JavaScript syntax (ECMA-262 3rd edition).

It is a simple text format that can be used for representing nested structures of data (lists of lists of dictionaries, …).

JSON (Javascript Object Notation) has an obvious:

• advantage over XML in that the response is lightweight. Parsing such a result is trivial in JavaScript as the format is already a valid Javascript object.
• disavantage over tabular formats in that the space is less efficient. Example: Table - Csv Data Structure

YAML want to be an official subset of JSON. Every JSON file is also a valid YAML file.

• rfc4627 - The application/json Media Type for JavaScript Object Notation (JSON)
• rfc7493 - The I-JSON Message Format - I-JSON (short for “Internet JSON”) is a restricted profile of JSON designed to maximize interoperability and increase confidence that software can process it successfully with predictable results.
