Working with JSON Data
Adam Freeman · Apress eBooks · 2022
In this chapter, I describe the Go standard library support for the JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) format. JSON has become the de facto standard for representing data, largely because it is simple and works across platforms. See for a concise description of the data format if you have not encountered JSON before. JSON is often encountered as the data format used in RESTful web services, which I demonstrate in Part 3. Table 21-1 puts the JSON features in context.
