Snowpal Education: JSON Data Modeling: A Simple Example

JSON is one of the most popular and commonly used formats for data exchange. Let’s understand how it works.

You can represent hierarchical data in many ways with one of the most popular formats being JSON. If you are a UI developer, you are likely consuming JSON Data, and if you are a server side engineer, you are providing JSON Data (via REST or Graph APIs, for instance).

It is imperative that your JSON Schema looks accurate and is a true structural representation of the problem you are setting out to solve. If it isn’t, it’s surely going to cause a bit of pain as your product’s adoptability grows (think backward compatibility, refactoring, extensibility, and more such challenges).

In this course, we will take a recent feature we implemented on our Web App, and design the actual JSON Data Model alongside exploring alternative structures.
