We need a JSON 2
When you say .jsonc, do you mean JSONC, JSONC, or JSONC? And have I mentioned JSON-C?

Ask HN: Modern C Libraries
If you want a comfortable developer experience without having to "develop standard functionality," choose another language.
Otherwise: libcurl for the requests, json-c[0] for the JSON handling. SDL for window handling/events/other glue stuff. I don't know what rocksdb is but I assume it has its own C API library.

Why?
There’s also json-c and Hjson.

(Just out of sheer curiosity) Is there's any way to get JSON responses from HTTP request (https://ipinfo.io/) and store them in a structure of C?
Yes. This library does basically that: https://github.com/json-c/json-c

jemi: a compact JSON serializer for embedded systems
This is quite similar to cJSON, although cJSON leans more towards dynamic memory allocation.

Is there a de facto standard JSON library for C?
If 'de-factoness' (urgh) was measured in GitHub stars, then https://github.com/DaveGamble/cJSON would win.
- cJSON can't parse strings with a zero character in it, because strings are zero terminated in this api. But doesn't that make it absolutely useless for production? Like, one /0 and my programs crashes/can't parse? Why can't it be escaped?

Luau Goes Open-Source
You often end up with cases where you have to manually call the correct free function for the type you're using, again completely untyped - e.g. if I'm using both sentry and cjson, then my function will ook something like this:

A tiny json parser for study.
Nice how would you compare this to DaveGambles cJSON? https://github.com/DaveGamble/cJSON (which I what I currently use)
What are some alternatives?
When comparing json-c and cJSON you can also consider the following projects:
Jansson - C library for encoding, decoding and manipulating JSON data
JsonCpp - A C++ library for interacting with JSON.
ArduinoJson - 📟 JSON library for Arduino and embedded C++. Simple and efficient.
JSMN - Jsmn is a world fastest JSON parser/tokenizer. This is the official repo replacing the old one at Bitbucket
json - JSON for Modern C++
RapidJSON - A fast JSON parser/generator for C++ with both SAX/DOM style API
libjson - a JSON parser and printer library in C. easy to integrate with any model.
yyjson - The fastest JSON library in C
