JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) is a lightweight data interchange format that is easy for humans to read and write, and easy for machines to parse and generate. It's based on a subset of JavaScript and is commonly used to transmit data between a server and web application, as an alternative to XML. JSON is language-independent and is supported by virtually all modern programming languages.
