JSON Format

JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) is a lightweight data-interchange format that is easy for humans to read and write. It is also easy for machines to parse and generate. JSON is primarily used to transmit data between a server and a web application as text, making it ideal for applications like APIs or web services. JSON is composed of key/value pairs, and data structures can be objects (enclosed in curly braces {}) or arrays (enclosed in square brackets []). Each key is a string, followed by a colon, and then the value can be a string, number, array, object, or boolean value. The format itself is simple and designed to be easily readable, which is why it is widely adopted across platforms for configuration files, data transfer, and storage. The process of converting data to JSON and vice versa involves serialization (converting an object into a string) and deserialization (converting a string back into an object). This tool provides functionality to format, compress, escape, and unescape JSON data, ensuring users can easily manipulate their JSON structures for various purposes.
