### parsed JSON vs. stringified JSON

- parsed JSON: what we commonly refer to as JSON, which can be of any data type.
- stringified JSON: serialized JSON, which is always a string type.

### Binding value difference between svelte-jsoneditor and json-editor-vue

- svelte-jsoneditor: An object contains a parsed JSON or a stringified JSON, will do `JSON.parse` when passing as a stringified JSON.
- json-editor-vue: JSON itself. What you see is what you get.

If you prefer the behavior of svelte-jsoneditor:

```html
<JsonEditorVue
  :content="content"
  :onChange="(updatedContent) => {
    content = updatedContent
  }"
/>
```

### The association between binding value and modes

> [!Important]
>
> The input value is independent of modes, **except**:
>
> Input value of string type will be treated as a normal string under tree mode, as a stringified JSON under text mode by default.
>
> The output value of tree mode is a parsed JSON, the output value of text mode is a stringified JSON.
>
> But this correspondence can be disrupted by programmatic changes or mode switching.
>
> See https://github.com/josdejong/svelte-jsoneditor/pull/166 for more details.

FAQ: How to keep the value as parsed JSON in text mode?

> [!Caution]
>
> - Not performant for large JSON documents.
> - Adjust the `debounce` value based on the size of your JSON.
> - Will output empty value when the input value is invalid.

```vue
<script setup>
import { Mode } from 'vanilla-jsoneditor'
</script>

<template>
  <JsonEditorVue :mode="Mode.text" :stringified="false" />
</template>
```

### Naming convention

Support camelCase and kebab-case for tag & property name.

> [!Tip]
>
> When using json-editor-vue or any Vue component via CDN (HTML), kebab-case must be used exclusively due to HTML's case insensitivity.

### Boolean properties

Including the boolean properties of svelte-jsoneditor like `readOnly` with no value will imply `true`:

- ✓ `<JsonEditorVue readOnly />`

- ✓ `<JsonEditorVue :readOnly="true" />`

// const jsonEditorVueRef = ref()

onMounted(() => {
  jsonEditorVueRef.value.jsonEditor.focus()
})
</script>

<template>
  <JsonEditorVue ref="jsonEditorVueRef" />
</template>
```
