Jason is an easy-to-use Go library for reading arbitrary JSON without defining structs. It provides convenient typed getters for nested values while validating types and paths.

Use cases

• parse arbitrary in go without structs
• read nested values by key path
• extract fields from an http response body
• get strings ints and arrays from dynamic
• validate structure while reading values

When to choose

• you need to read JSON whose schema is unknown at compile time
• you want simple typed accessors instead of defining Go structs
• you only need to read JSON, not generate it

When to avoid

• you need to serialize or create JSON output
• you have well-defined schemas and prefer encoding/ structs
• you need an actively maintained library with recent updates
