Fun Fact
JSON became so dominant that it replaced XML in most APIs within a decade due to its simplicity, smaller size, and faster parsing speed.
Historical Context
JSON emerged in the early 2000s as a lightweight alternative to XML. Its adoption accelerated when modern web APIs and JavaScript frameworks standardized it as the primary data interchange format. Today, nearly all cloud services, REST APIs, and microservices rely on JSON, making tools that convert JSON into human-readable formats essential for developers and analysts.
