LitJSON is a small, fast C# library for converting between JSON strings and .NET objects, with no external dependencies. It provides both object mapping and low-level reader/writer APIs and is highly portable across platforms.
Use cases
- serialize and deserialize JSON in .NET
- convert C# objects to JSON strings
- parse JSON without external dependencies
- embed a tiny JSON library in a .NET app
- read and write JSON with a streaming API
- portable JSON handling across .NET platforms
When to choose
- you need a lightweight, dependency-free JSON library for .NET
- you want a small assembly that is easy to embed or ship
- you need portability across many .NET platforms
- you prefer simple object mapping plus low-level readers/writers
When to avoid
- you need high-performance or feature-rich JSON handling like System.Text.Json or Newtonsoft.Json
- you need JSON Schema validation or advanced serialization features
- you need a library under a clearly standard license (license is non-standard)
