This is a follow-up to yesterday’s tutorial about the config file system: https://youtube.com/watch?v=IrUhyf-g5hU
You should to watch it because this simpler alternative works well for plenty of small games. Config files only have sections and key-value pairs. With JSON, we get a bit more flexibility as, for one, we can convert one of Godot’s dictionary to a JSON file and vice versa. On top of that, JSON has a tree-like structure. So we can easily reflect the complexity of our game with that format.
You will see plenty of tools out there that use JSON to store data: level editors, programs to write game dialogues, etc.
