Information about CSV and JSON file formats
| Name | CSV | JSON |
| Full name | CSV - Comma-Separated Values | JavaScript Object Notation |
| File extension | .csv | .json |
| MIME type | text/csv | application/json |
| Developed by | Informational RFC | Douglas Crockford |
| Type of format | multi-platform, serial data streams | |
| Description | In computing, a comma-separated values (CSV) file stores tabular data (numbers and text) in plain text. Each line of the file is a data record. Each record consists of one or more fields, separated by commas. The use of the comma as a field separator is the source of the name for this file format. | File extension JSON is associated to JavaScript Object Notation file format, a lightweight, text-based, language-independent data interchange format. JSON defines a small set of formatting rules for the portable representation of structured data. It is used by various applications as alternative option to XML file format. |
| Technical details | The CSV file format is not standardized. The basic idea of separating fields with a comma is clear, but that idea gets complicated when the field data may also contain commas or even embedded line-breaks. CSV implementations may not handle such field data, or they may use quotation marks to surround the field. | The data in a json file are stored in simple text file format and the content is viewable in any simple text editor. It originates as a way to represent objects in JavaScript, but most modern programming languages or applications will have built-in functionality for working with JSON file format. |
