What it is AI-extracted, prompt v1, taxonomy v1, 2026-08-30, confidence not recorded

A small Node.js library that simplifies reading and writing JSON files by wrapping fs and JSON.parse/stringify in convenient methods. It supports callback, promise, and synchronous APIs.

Use cases

  • read a config file in node
  • write an object to a file
  • parse from disk without try/catch boilerplate
  • save application state as
  • load data synchronously in a script

When to choose

  • you're on Node.js and want dead-simple JSON file I/O
  • you want callback, promise, and sync APIs in one tiny module

When to avoid

  • you need JSON file handling in the browser
  • you need streaming or large-file JSON parsing
  • you already use fs-extra which includes this functionality
