Did You Know?
JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) was introduced by Douglas Crockford in 2001 and became an ECMA standard in 2013.
JSON is language-independent and is widely used for data interchange between web applications and APIs.
Valid JSON must have keys enclosed in double quotes, unlike JavaScript object literals which can use single quotes or unquoted keys.
These facts help provide context and educational value about the tool's purpose and history.
