Key-Value JSON files

File description

JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) is a lightweight data-interchange format. It is easy for humans to read and write and for machines to parse and generate. JSON is a text format that is completely language independent but uses conventions that are familiar to programmers of the C-family of languages, including C, C++, C#, Java, JavaScript, Perl, Python, and many others.
The Key-Value JSON is used mainly in Javascript apps and frameworks. Every key is associated with a value, hierarchical data is supported. It's used by angular-translate, i18next, chrome extensions, i18n-node and many other libraries.

Restrictions

• JSON needs to be put in a .json extension file with an UTF-8 without BOM encoding
• Arrays containing objects or other arrays are ignored
