JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) is a lightweight, text based format that can be used for storing and exchanging between systems, especially in web applications. It is easy for users to read, write, and understand, and is easy for machines to parse and generate.
JSON is written in plain text format, making it extremely simple to read and write. It is easily readable by people, unlike other forms of notation. It represents data as key-value pairs, where keys are strings of data, and values can be strings, numbers, or other object. Each key is tied to a value. JSON is widely used by web applications to send data between a web browser and the web application’s server. Due to its plain text format, JSON is extremely compact. This makes it efficient for transmitting data over networks.
