simplejson
**********

The json library was added to Python in version 2.6.
If you're using an earlier version of Python, the
`simplejson <https://simplejson.readthedocs.io/en/latest/>`_ library is
available via PyPI.

simplejson mimics the json standard library. It is available so that developers
that use older versions of Python can use the latest features available in the
json lib.

You can start using simplejson when the json library is not available by
importing simplejson under a different name:

.. code-block:: python

import simplejson as json

After importing simplejson as `json`, the above examples will all work as if you
were using the standard json library.
