For some applications such as messaging, it has been gaining in favour of more complex notations such as [XML] and [YAML] because it has very low syntax overhead and is truly trivial to parse. As such, it is particularly well-suited for passing data among programs written in different languages (the common scenario being a server-side application written in [Perl], [Python] or [Ruby] communicating with an [AJAX]ified JavaScript client). |
