Study Notes
JSON Basics
- JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) is a lightweight, text-based data interchange format that is easy to read and write.
- An example of a JSON format is:
{ "name": "John", "age": 30, "city": "New York" }
Purpose of JSON
- The main purpose of JSON is to facilitate the exchange of data between web servers, web applications, and mobile apps, particularly in web development and mobile app development.
JSON vs XML
- JSON differs from XML (Extensible Markup Language) in that it is more compact and easier to parse, making it a faster and more efficient data interchange format.
- Unlike XML, which uses tags to define data, JSON uses key-value pairs to represent data, making it more concise and readable.
- JSON is also more flexible than XML, as it allows for the use of arrays and objects to represent complex data structures.
