FAQ

How does this module compare to other JSON modules on CPAN?

This module is rather slower than JSON::PP, does not support Unicode, and does not pinpoint exact location on parse error. But it is a cool hack and demonstrates the power of Perl regular expressions. It does not require any non-core module. It requires Perl 5.10 at the minimum because it utilizes regex features like named capture and recursive pattern.

JSON, JSON::PP, JSON::XS, JSON::Tiny.
