JamesNK/Newtonsoft.Json

This system is a comprehensive JSON processing library for .NET, providing robust tools for serializing and deserializing objects, parsing and querying JSON via LINQ to JSON, and validating against JSON Schemas. It supports advanced data formats like BSON and XML conversion, while offering extensive customization through pluggable naming strategies, custom converters, and async capabilities. The codebase is heavily focused on maintaining high test coverage and performance benchmarking across multiple .NET versions.

This period focused on modernizing the project's build infrastructure and expanding its serialization capabilities. Key changes included migrating to the modern .NET SDK-style project format, introducing asynchronous loading and writing methods for LINQ to JSON, and adding new converters for ADO.NET, binary data, and dynamic objects.

11 changes

This period focused on modularizing the library by extracting JSON Schema validation and BSON support into separate packages, while introducing a pluggable naming strategy for serialization. Concurrently, the team significantly expanded test coverage across serialization, schema validation, and utility classes to ensure stability.

11 changes

This period focused on expanding the project's documentation and test coverage for core features, particularly around serialization, LINQ to JSON, and XML conversion. A significant technical update involved replacing the internal JSONPath implementation to support advanced query expressions, regex matching, and array slicing.

13 changes

This period focused on establishing performance measurement infrastructure and expanding test coverage. A new console application was introduced to run benchmarks using BenchmarkDotNet, while extensive test suites were added to cover asynchronous parsing, serialization edge cases, and specific reported issues.
