What is JSON Format ?
JSON stands for JavaScript Object Notation which is a lightweight format for storing and transporting data. JSON format is quite often used when we need to sent data between a server and a web page. JSON is becoming increasingly popular these days due to its simplicity.
JSON is self describing and very easy to understand for the average human. Creating the JSON data is syntactically similar to creating objects in JavaScript. Due to this similarity, we can easily convert and transform JSON data into Javascript objects and vice-versa.
