Common JSON Issues
- • Single Quotes: JSON requires double quotes, not single quotes around keys and strings.
- • Trailing Commas: Arrays and objects cannot have trailing commas after the last element.
- • Unquoted Keys: All object keys must be enclosed in double quotes.
- • Comments: Standard JSON doesn't support comments; use JSON5 or preprocessors instead.
- • Escape Sequences: Special characters like newlines and quotes must be properly escaped.
JSON Best Practices
- • Use Consistent Formatting: Maintain uniform indentation and spacing for readability.
- • Keep Data Structures Flat: Avoid deeply nested objects that are hard to parse and validate.
- • Use Descriptive Names: Choose clear, meaningful names for keys to make data self-documenting.
- • Validate Early: Validate JSON data at system boundaries to catch errors immediately.
- • Use Standard Types: Stick to JSON-native types (strings, numbers, booleans, null, arrays, objects).
