So one of the base libraries over the years that has been our friend is Newtonsoft.Json – the stuff of legend maybe?

Like many things in the world of .Net over the years, Microsoft watches these open source libraries… and notices when they become the defacto standard (meaning… Micro either left it out of their core offerings…. or more typical someone did better). Hence Microsoft’s System.Text.Json vs. NewtonSoft.Json. …
