JSON Best Practices Every Developer Should Know

JSON is the lingua franca of modern web APIs. These best practices keep your data interoperable and performant.

Use consistent naming

Pick camelCase or snake_case and stick with it across the entire API.

Use JSON Schema or Zod to validate payloads at runtime.

Send only fields the client needs. Use pagination and gzip/brotli compression.

Use /v1/ in URLs or version headers. Breaking changes need a clear migration path.
