Stub TypeScript definitions entry for json5, which provides its own types definitions
The @types/json5 npm package provides TypeScript type definitions for JSON5, a JSON format extension that aims to make JSON code easier for humans to write and read. This package doesn't add functionality to JSON5 itself but offers type support for TypeScript developers, ensuring that interactions with JSON5 data are type-safe.
Type Definitions for JSON5 Parsing
Provides type definitions for using JSON5's parse method, allowing for the parsing of JSON5 string data into JavaScript objects with TypeScript type safety.
"import * as JSON5 from 'json5';\nconst obj: any = JSON5.parse('{\"key\": \"value\"}');"
Type Definitions for JSON5 Stringification
Offers type definitions for JSON5's stringify method, enabling the conversion of JavaScript objects into JSON5 strings with TypeScript type safety.
"import * as JSON5 from 'json5';\nconst jsonString: string = JSON5.stringify({ key: 'value' });"
The json5 package is the core library that @types/json5 provides types for. It allows for parsing and stringifying JSON5 format, which is a more human-friendly extension of JSON. Unlike @types/json5, json5 itself implements the functionality for working with JSON5 data.
While not directly similar in functionality, @types/node provides TypeScript definitions for Node.js, including its JSON parsing and stringifying capabilities. It's similar in the sense that it offers type definitions for JSON operations, but it's focused on standard JSON rather than JSON5.
This is a stub types definition for @types/json5 (http://json5.org/).
json5 provides its own type definitions, so you don't need @types/json5 installed!
