javascript - Is there an alternative to the JSON format? -


during laravel installation, ran composer , javascript object notation (json) format.

i wondering whether alternatives format exist, have same string - value system?

there stacks of data formats can represent data in same way json.

json happens 1 that's found widespread acceptance, there plenty of others.

  • yaml uses indentation instead of braces show nesting levels. gives same features json, intended more readable.
  • xml uses angle-brackets in same way html. attributes, can have more complex data simple string-value pairs. less readable.
  • csv commonly used import data spreadsheets. string-value pairs can represented header row in data.

and there's plenty of others, both standard , proprietary. can make own; long can read , write it, it's data format. there's no right or wrong choice. best solution stick common ones, they'll have more support in languages you're working in, , there more resources available learn from. money, makes json clear winner.

in case, when comes using third-party product composer, you're kinda forced use data format of choice, in case json.
