We've been building data pipelines that scrape websites and extract structured data for a while now. If you've done this, you know the drill: you write CSS selectors, the site changes its layout, everything breaks at 2am, and you spend your morning rewriting parsers. LLMs seemed like the obvious fix — just throw the HTML at GPT and ask for JSON. Except in practice, it's more painful than that: - Raw HTML is full of nav bars, footers, and tracking junk that eats your token budget. A typical product page is 80% noise. - LLMs return malformed JSON more often than you'd expect, especially with…

Hi friends, I'm really excited to introduce KSON, which just entered public beta! Anywhere a human is reading or editing YAML/JSON/TOML, KSON may be used as a more effective interface on that data. If you are such a human, we invite you to participate in this beta. tl;dr Check out the website [1], play with the online playground [2], install the library for your programming language [3], edit in your favorite editor [4], discuss and give feedback [5], contribute to the project [6]. (A personal note about this project: I love software. Machines made of words! Such a wonder. KSON…

We're a team of three friends who have been working with forms and Open Source for a decade, and we joined forces together to create something where we can apply all of our experience. We recently released GolemUI, an Open Source library to generate forms dynamically from JSON definitions, with a typed layer to simplify authoring. This library has a lot to offer. These are the main characteristics: 1. A JSON engine. The form is governed by a JSON definition that you can store in a DB, version, diff, or generate it with LLMs as a validated JSON. 2. We provide also 28 headless components (and…

Hi HN ! I'm Alex, a tech enthusiast. I'm excited to show you Paradict (https://github.com/pyrustic/paradict), my solution for streamable multi-format serialization. Although JSON, YAML, and TOML are all human-readable, they serve different purposes. For example, TOML is specifically designed for configuration files while JSON is used as a data interchange format. Sometimes an initiative to create a binary version of JSON arises and as far as I know, it ends with an unidirectional mapping of datatypes. There is no silver bullet, yet one coherent solution built from scratch…

Hello HN! I want to introduce fastgron, my new project. fastgron is a JSON to GRON converter, built to be incredibly fast – it's 40 times faster than Gron. GRON is a tool for making JSON greppable, but it can slow down with larger files. With fastgron, even a 200MB JSON file can be converted in just 1 second. Key features include streaming conversion for memory efficiency and an optimized path reconstruction for faster operations. It leverages C++ and the simdjson and fast_io libraries for speed. I welcome all feedback, suggestions, or questions. Thank you!

ISON (Interchange Simple Object Notation) - a data format optimized for LLMs and Agentic AI. The problem: JSON wastes tokens. Curly braces, quotes, colons, commas - all eat into your context window. ISON uses tabular patterns that LLMs already understand from training data: JSON (87 tokens): { "users": [ {"id": 1, "name": "Alice", "email": "[email protected]"}, {"id": 2, "name": "Bob", "email": "[email protected]"} ] } ISON (34 tokens): table.users id:int name:string email 1 Alice [email protected] 2 Bob [email protected] Features: - 30-70% token reduction - Type annotations - References between…
