What is a .json file?

JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) is a lightweight, text-based data-interchange format representing objects, arrays, strings, numbers, booleans, and null. It is language-independent, human-readable, and the dominant format for web APIs and configuration. It requires a single well-formed root value.

How to use this file

Use an example JSON file to test parsers and serializers, schema validation, Unicode and number-precision handling, and API request or response processing.
