What is JSON?

JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) is a lightweight data interchange format. It is easy for humans to read and write, and easy for machines to parse and generate.

Why format JSON?

  • Readability — Proper indentation makes data structures clear
  • Debugging — Spot errors and understand data quickly
  • Documentation — Clean JSON for API examples

Common JSON errors

  • Trailing commas — Not allowed after the last item
  • Single quotes — JSON requires double quotes
  • Unquoted keys — Object keys must be quoted
  • Comments — Standard JSON does not support comments
