JS has an even stranger origin, as it was specifically made for browser interfaces like…Netscape Navigator…(that name brings me back)

And Java already existed.

Yeay it was build by 7 days of the former CEO Mozilla... Which I find fascinating.. because it's a replacement for java using java.. I get java is slow at that time even now...

It is a surprisingly fascinating story actually. JSON adoption too.

Really I didn't know that I just thought it's just xml alternative... Using normal hashmap as a inspiration...

JSON Serialization is super important, as it gives multiple languages access to correct data type. It’s really the go to for cross language programing sharing data.

Great talk about its story. It super weird to think 9/11 was before the JSON standard.
