LJSON: JSON extended with pure functions

In plain words

LJSON is a file format that extends JSON by incorporating pure functions, enabling developers to create more expressive and functional data structures. It targets software developers who need to represent computational logic alongside data. The format combines JSON's simplicity with functional programming capabilities, allowing functions to be serialized and transmitted alongside traditional data values.

  Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself.
