JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) is now the lingua franca of data interchange. Most platforms such as browsers, phones, client and embedded applications have support for consuming/producing JSON. Native Browser compatibility makes it especially convenient for our modern web architecture.
In this session we'll walk through several patterns for delivering JSON to our clients. We'll explore the built-in converters, profiles, and look at creating your own JSON view layer for more in-depth structures.
Grails has some good tooling built-in but we'll explore both the Spring Layer and plugin ecosystem's various tools to find the right tool for your job.
