Description

JSON stands for JavaScript Object Notation. It is a very popular and widely used data format. It is platform neutral which means it will work with any programming language and operating system. It is a light weight format with the ability to convert to native JavaScript objects.

JSON is a bit like XML but simpler and shorter to write. The syntax used is similar to that used by JavaScript . Knowing some JavaScript will be useful hence I have included some lectures like JavaScript variables, operators and functions. JSON can be parsed or interpreted using JavaScript functions so having a basic understanding of JavaScript functions will help when the functions are used to translate JSON.

This is a short video based course of less than 90 minutes long to introduce you to JSON and learn especially how to write and understand JSON syntax. JSON isn't really a programming language in its own right, it's more of a data format so understanding some JavaScript concepts will help you understand JSON. A basic knowledge of JavaScript is advised but I have included some useful JavaScript concepts like variables, functions and operators to guide you.

What you will learn in this course:

  • What is JSON
  • JSON Syntax
  • JavaScript Variable
  • JavaScript Operators
  • JavaScript Functions
  • How to create JSON objects

Who this course is for:

  • This course is meant for those new to JSON syntax. This course is probably not for you if you are an experienced Programmer with Javascript or other major languages.
