JSON5: The Open Source Project Used by Billions | Aseem Kishore | Prosperous Software Pod

Most developers have used JSON5 even if they don't realize it. In this episode, Aseem Kishore, creator of JSON5, shares the story behind one of the most widely adopted open-source projects in modern software development. What started as a small improvement to JSON has grown into an open standard used across major platforms, including Chromium, Next.js, and even Apple's native operating systems. Aseem reflects on building an open-source project that now powers millions of developers worldwide, the challenges of maintaining software at scale, and what the future looks like in the age of AI. The core idea: The best software often becomes invisible. JSON5 has quietly become part of the modern web, proving that small improvements to developer experience can have an enormous impact.
