  • A good C library to parse json data

    I've used picojson. What makes it pretty awesome is it's completely contained into a single H file.

    Especially if the library is even slower than smaller alternatives like [1].

    But that's just my personal opinion, I understand that other people have different priorities and are fine with including 785kb of C++ template headers s long as public interface suits their needs and taste.

    This is just an example for the kind of freedom software allows for, because it doesn't cost you anything and there is no objectively "better" in this case.
