What you'll learn

JSON is one of the most widely used human-readable data interchange formats in the world and understanding how it works is important for developing server-side Java applications. In this course, Java: JSON Fundamentals, you will learn everything about JSON that a Java developer needs to know. First, you will cover what it can and should be used for. Next, you will learn how to generate and parse JSON including binding, streaming and DOM/Tree style APIs.
