    yeah, substance > style.

    the content/facts/information is what should matter, make it accessible. share it.

    let the audience access it however best suits them.

      I would argue that json has become the data format method of choice for most applications.

      What you want is mostly what json is, not html.

        The format doesn’t bother me too much.
        json can be great for sure.

        But I reckon some people could still bung a load of unnecessarily complex layout and aesthetic data in there, and potentially screw up the data structure and still make it harder to access than need be.

        I accept that, if the json is structured logically, it should handle both substantive and layout data, and probably easiest to get to either the content or the formatting.
