Is it me or all REST api use json today ?
And xml is kinda dead ?

I always feel awful when I see an xml rest api.

unfortunately xml in apis is still widely used 😒

I'm not quit sure what to answer.

I guess most of the company using json may have rework on the wheel.

@cabrasm 😆

@cabrasm okay i'm not gonna complain again of xml in REST API.

That's very hard to see !

📌

Some third party website still uses XML and working with XML makes me sick😥

XML is slow, but is still tool used other places that the internet

Everytime I have to use XML I cry and then convert that to JSON.

It does seem like JSON is the ubiquitous option. I prefer it myself.

In larger systems, and especially distributed systems, one mature option is protocol buffers (also called protobufs). The data serialized across the wire is defined in a language-specific interface, so it’s statically typed and you don’t need a DTD. Used correctly, they easily allow for rolling deployment and backwards compatibility.
