  • JavaScript Code using an HTML File7:23

    Demonstrates using JavaScript and HTML together to write dynamic content with document.write, pulling language and author from a JSON-like object and displaying them in headings and paragraphs.

  • Supported Data Tpes in JSON7:36

    Explore how JSON represents data with objects (unordered name/value pairs) and arrays (ordered values), and review supported data types such as numbers, strings, booleans, null, and whitespace.

  • Every Data Type and How to Implement7:24

    Learn JSON data types and syntax, including strings, booleans, arrays, and objects, with null and whitespace examples and plain value usage.

  • Creation of Simple Objects in JSON12:17

    Create simple JSON objects with attributes such as book name and price, using variable syntax and object creation in JavaScript and HTML demonstrations.

  • Creation of Array Objects5:45

    Create JSON array objects using JavaScript in an HTML page by defining a books array with items like Pascal and Scala books, including name and price properties.

  • Implementation of same with HTML and JavaScript7:52

    Demonstrates rendering a books array into an HTML table with JavaScript, looping to print name and price using document.write and writeln and table tags.

  • Creation of Array Objects in JSON with Syntax11:11

    Create and display array objects in JSON using JavaScript by iterating with for loops and rendering a tabular HTML table of Pascal and Scala items with name and price.

  • JSON Schema Definition with Schema Libraries8:32

    Learn how JSON schema defines the structure of JSON data, making it human and machine readable while enabling complete structural validation, automated testing, and validating client submitted data.

  • JSON with Other Programming Languages4:58

    Explore how to define a JSON schema using keywords like title, description, type, properties, and pattern, and apply constraints such as minimum, maximum, minimum length, and maximum length.

  • JSON and XML Difference6:45

    Compare json and xml to highlight json's compact syntax, xml's tag-based structure, and array support. Explain how json is parsed with JavaScript's eval and discuss readability and language independence.

  • JSON History7:23

    Trace JSON history from Douglas Crockford's State Software in 2001 to Yahoo in 2005 and Google in 2006, and its rise as a data interchange format for web APIs.

  • JSON Conparison7:07

    Explore when to use JSON versus RDBMS, including NoSQL JSON storage and MongoDB, and sorting arrays while applying JSON for programming languages and student project data scenarios.

  • JSON Menu Popup Menu Items9:33

    Explore creating and displaying JSON objects and arrays, including books with name and price, and build a menu pop-up with new, open, and save items wired to on-click functions.

  • Access JSON Data Using for Loop9:20

    Access json data using a for loop to traverse a json object and display name, number, and condition in a simple html page with javascript.

  • Access JSON Array Data Using for Loop8:20

    Access json array data using a for loop by building a simple html page with a colors array and records of names and cities, then display each color in sequence.

  • Access JSON Array Data Using for Loop Continue9:49

    Master the basics of accessing JSON array data by using for loops to display color values and nested records, including zero-based indexing and key-value access with document.write.

  • JSON Stringify Function10:31

    Explore how JSON.stringify converts a javascript object to a string and renders it in the browser, using a sample HTML file with colors and records data.

  • JSON Parse Function12:34

    Explore the json.parse function by parsing data into an object, access name, city, and colors, and display the parsed values using document.write.

Requirements

  • Basic programming knowledge (JavaScript preferred). Familiarity with HTML and web technologies. Access to an AWS account for the project section. A desire to learn JSON and its integration with cloud services.

Description

JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) is a lightweight data-interchange format that has become the backbone of modern web development, APIs, and cloud applications. This course offers a deep dive into JSON, starting from its fundamentals to real-world applications. You'll learn to manipulate JSON data, integrate it with various technologies, and implement a project-based approach by building a fully functional XML-to-JSON converter using AWS Lambda.

Section 1: Comprehensive Introduction to JSON

This section lays the groundwork by introducing JSON, its evolution, and its applications in modern technology. Starting with the basics of JSON syntax, objects, and arrays, you'll progress to explore its compatibility with existing technologies. Hands-on lectures demonstrate creating objects and array objects and implementing them with HTML and JavaScript. You'll also delve into JSON schema definitions, supported data types, and differences between JSON and XML. The section wraps up with practical examples of accessing JSON data using loops and exploring essential functions like JSON.stringify and JSON.parse.

Section 2: Project on AWS Lambda - XML to JSON Converter

In this practical section, you'll apply your JSON knowledge to build an XML-to-JSON converter using AWS Lambda. The project begins with an introduction to the requirements and objectives, followed by step-by-step coding discussions and execution. You’ll learn how to deploy the project on AWS, create APIs, and test their functionality. This hands-on experience will help you understand how to integrate JSON with cloud-based services and make your applications scalable and efficient.

Conclusion

By the end of this course, you’ll be equipped with an in-depth understanding of JSON and its applications across technologies. You'll have hands-on experience with JSON projects and learn to deploy and integrate JSON-based solutions with AWS Lambda, a critical skill for modern developers and cloud engineers.

Who this course is for:

  • Web developers and software engineers looking to master JSON.
  • Cloud developers working with AWS services.
  • Data analysts and API developers seeking to improve data interchange workflows.
  • Students and professionals aiming to enhance their development and deployment skills.
