## Decoding JSON
## JSON
Because of the ubiquitous nature of JSON, support for it is built directly into V.
V generates code for JSON encoding and decoding.
No runtime reflection is used. This results in much better performance.
### Decoding JSON

Because of the ubiquitous nature of JSON, support for it is built directly into V.
The `json.decode` function takes two arguments:
the first is the type into which the JSON value should be decoded and
the second is a string containing the JSON data.
V generates code for JSON encoding and decoding.
No runtime reflection is used. This results in much better performance.
### Encoding JSON
```v
import json
struct User {
name string
score i64
}
mut data := map[string]int{}
user := &User{
name: 'Pierre'
score: 1024
}
data['x'] = 42
data['y'] = 360
println(json.encode(data)) // {"x":42,"y":360}
println(json.encode(user)) // {"name":"Pierre","score":1024}
```
