A nice, sweet, short, well ... "to the point" introduction to JSON, with a nice mix of use cases and internet resources. This little book got me jump-started on the topic, which is exactly what I needed.

I really liked this short and “to-the-point” book. If you didn’t like it as much, that’s OK. (If you’ve read the book, that will make sense!) I would have loved to see a chapter contrasting it with XML and especially YAML, but then again, it’s meant only as an introduction. After reading it, I definitely understood why I need to use JSON and I’ve already started applying what I’ve learned. Thanks!

A brief and basic primer.

[Fuqi Xu · Rating 2 out of 5]

For beginners. A bit out-of-date. Can be more concise.

Great quick guide on the basics of JSON. If you need to know JSON and have programmed before this is a great way to get to know JSON.

Lindsay Bassett's book is a fine and practical introduction to JSON. Well-written and clear.
