Building a high performance JSON parser
Like how https://github.com/zserge/jsmn works. I thought it would be neat to have such as parser for https://github.com/vshymanskyy/muon

Flattening ASTs (and Other Compiler Data Structures)
One more JSON implementation using this approach is https://github.com/zserge/jsmn.

Show HN: WinGPT, AI Assistant for Windows 3.1
Yep! I'm using JSMN (https://github.com/zserge/jsmn), which is a streaming parser that visits each token sequentially, so there's only one copy of each JSON response in memory. I also avoid allocating new intermediate memory whenever possible; for example, to unescape backslashes in the JSON strings, I use a destructive loop that moves the non-backslash characters forward in memory, and truncates the string by moving the null terminator earlier in the string. Not something I'd imagine doing in most environments today, but as you said, it saves a bit of space at the expense of CPU time :)

Lightweight data serialization/deserialization format
After reviewing several options, I’ve settled on plain old JSON. For parsing, I use https://github.com/zserge/jsmn. For serialization I use https://github.com/rdpoor/jems (disclaimer: I wrote the latter, but others use it as well).

jemi: a compact JSON serializer for embedded systems
As mentioned here, it appears that tiny-json is a parser, not a serializer. If you're looking for parsers, I've been very happy with jsmn.

What is the proper way to store a RFC3339 date string?
Very small, 4-5 fields but I'm still going to write in binary because I'm trying to reduce dependencies and https://github.com/zserge/jsmn looks like good fit but jsmn only does parsing which I need for parsing some Oauth json data and config.json file. I will be able to dump the state struct in a state.bin file and read it later for comparing it with system time. Not having to write in text fits well for this particular use case. Benefits: Reduced dependencies and almost cost less decoding of the state struct(which the user will never see).

A tiny zero-allocation JSON serializer compatible with C89!
This is my very straight-forward implementation that came to be from the lack of JSON encoding in jsmn:

What's the current feeling / status of Mongoose OS? Are there any better / newer alternatives for small hobby projects? (I'm using the C APIs, not the JS wrapper stuff)?
I've been on and off working on ESP32 and ESP8266 projects for a long time now, but am overall a near complete novice to electronics, circuit board design, etc. Anyway, the last project I worked on (these are personal / hobby projects for fun) I spent time looking into tools to build a more robust EPS32 based project with, and I ended up deciding that Mongoose OS was a great mix of out of the box features that fit with my experience as a software developer (mainly backend web stuff), with things like their json parsing library, etc, and the onboarding with AWS IoT things platform, etc.

Very nice project. How does this compare to Frozen?

Interest in use of playdate as a simple / fun utility remote control once networking APIs are available
The Hue API has a lot of very simple RESTful endpoints, e.g. GET /lights which along with a Lua JSON parser or even a C JSON parser could make discovery of devices doable... then again using the top down layout editor the devices could be placed in your virtual home layout.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing JSMN and frozen you can also consider the following projects:
cJSON - Ultralightweight JSON parser in ANSI C
json-parser - Very low footprint DOM-style JSON parser written in portable ANSI C
json-c - https://github.com/json-c/json-c is the official code repository for json-c. See the wiki for release tarballs for download. API docs at http://json-c.github.io/json-c/

json - JSON for Modern C++
RapidJSON - A fast JSON parser/generator for C++ with both SAX/DOM style API
LIBUCL - Universal configuration library parser
