The JSON object contains methods for parsing JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) and converting values to JSON. It can't be called or constructed, and aside from its two method properties, it has no interesting functionality of its own.
JSON is a syntax for serializing objects, arrays, numbers, strings, booleans, and null. It is based upon JavaScript syntax but is distinct from it: some JavaScript is not JSON.
Objects and Arrays
Property names must be double-quoted strings; trailing commas are
forbidden.
Numbers
Leading zeros are prohibited. A decimal point must be followed by at
least one digit. NaN and Infinity are unsupported.
Other differences include allowing only double-quoted strings and having no provisions for undefined or comments. For those who wish to use a more human-friendly configuration format based on JSON, there is JSON5, used by the Babel compiler, and the more commonly used YAML
