JavaScript Object Notation

Glossary Page

JSON is a data format that is designed for exchanging data between systems. It is lightweight and can be easily read and written by humans, while also being easily parsed and generated by machines. JSON is based on a subset of the JavaScript Programming Language, specifically the Standard ECMA-262 3rd Edition from December 1999. Although it is language independent, it follows conventions that are commonly used in programming languages like C, C++, C#, Java, JavaScript, Perl, Python, and others. These features make JSON an ideal format for exchanging data between different systems.
