Hands-on

2. Getting started with json.net

[Json.NET][1] is a popular high-performance JSON framework for .NET. It's a .Net Assembly that exposes a wide variety of classes and methods to help perform common tasks with json data.

This includes the ability to do things like serializing json data into class instances, data files as well as deserializing json data that might be coming from many different sources like from an API end point or from .json data files.

History and Samples

5. JSON.NET summary, history and samples

Starting out as a couple of static methods for escaping JavaScript strings, Json.NET evolved as features were added. To add support for reading JSON a major refactor was required, and Json.NET was split into the three major classes it still uses today: JsonReader, JsonWriter and JsonSerializer..

13. JSON Serialization Using Newtonsoft JSON Serialize

In today’s communication system JSON plays one very important role and we can say that day by day JSON is replacing XML, though XML has it’s own beauty and I hope JSON will never be an alternate of XML. In some situations however people are familiar with XML and they are using JSON now..

I am trying to add a reference 'Newtonsoft.Json.dll' I have followed what he has asked. which adds this ref from 'browse' tab to 'recent' tab. If I look at the list of refs from the ref list it is listed but with a yellow flag..

15. Serializing a PascalCase Newtonsoft.Json JObject to camelCase

In this post I describe one of the quirks of serializing JSON.NET JObject (contract resolvers are not honoured), and show how to get camelCase names when serializing a JObject that stored its property names in PascalCase..

16. Newtonsoft.Json .NET - To be, or not to be?⁸

JSON serialization is a big factor in web applications, especially for applications that expose almost all their functionality over REST API as our Virto platform does, and the performance of object serialization or deserialization has a significant impact on overall application performance and responsiveness.

22. C# JSON in Visual Studio 2019 Getting Started

C# JSON Serialization & Deserialization in Visual Studio 2019 Getting Started JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) is a lightweight data-interchange format. It is easy for humans to read and write. It is easy for machines to parse and generate Serialization is the process of converting the state of an object into a form that can be persisted or transported. The complement of serialization is deserialization, which converts a stream into an object. Together, these processes allow data to be stored and transferred The library design emphasizes high performance and low memory allocation over an extensive feature set. Built-in UTF-8 support optimizes the process of reading and writing JSON text encoded as UTF-8, which is the most prevalent encoding for data on the web and files on disk. This article shows how to use the System.Text.Json namespace to serialize to and deserialize from JavaScript Object Notation (JSON). If you're porting existing code from Newtonsoft.Json, see How to migrate to System.Text.Json..
