- JSON File Format Tips — JavaScript Object Notation
JSON File Format Tips
JSON is an acronym that stands for JavaScript Object Notation, a human-readable document format for storing and exchanging data.
Generally, it is easy for humans to read and write, and easy for machines to parse (read) and generate (write).
Variations include GeoJSON for simple geographic features.
Douglas Crockford, the developer of JSON and various JavaScript tools, says it is pronounced "Jason", but it is popularly known as "Jay'-sawn"
Alternative formats include CSV (Comma Separated Values, for data) and YAML (usually for configuration files).
