JsonCpp is a mature project currently in maintenance mode. Our primary focus is on stability, security, and long-term reliability rather than new features or performance optimizations.

Current Priorities

  • Security: Proactively addressing vulnerabilities and responding to fuzzing results.
  • Compatibility: Maintaining a warning-free build on the latest versions of major compilers (GCC, Clang, MSVC).
  • Reliability: Fixing regressions and critical logical bugs to ensure the library remains a dependable dependency.

Out of Scope

  • Performance: We are not aiming to compete with SIMD-accelerated or reflection-based parsers (see Comparisons for alternatives).
  • Major Features: We are generally not accepting requests for new data formats or major API overhauls.

For historical context on previous goals, see the deprecated roadmap.
