JSON

A JSON module for janet. Encodes and Decodes JSON data and converts it to and from Janet data structures. Strings are encoded as UTF-8, and UTF-16 escapes and surrogates as supported as per the JSON spec.

Json values are translated as follows:

• JSON array becomes Janet array
• JSON string becomes a Janet string.
• JSON Objects becomes a Janet table.
• JSON true and false become Janet booleans.
• JSON null becomes the keyword :null. This is because JSON supports null values in objects, while Janet does not support nil value or keys in tables.
