Both JSON and HTML are file formats, so what differs below is how each one chooses to represent a value.

Property	in JSON	in HTML
identifiers	`Double quotes; backslash escapes`	`Attribute values in quotes; entities for reserved characters`
dates	`No date type: dates arrive as strings and the reader must p...`	`Whatever text was rendered`
binary	`Not supported natively - base64 inside a string`	`data: URIs inside src attributes`
separator	`Braces and commas`	`Tags, not delimiters`
encoding	`UTF-8 by definition`	`Declared in a meta charset tag or the HTTP header`
typing	`string, number, boolean, null, object, array - no date type`	`None`
shape	`Nested objects and arrays`	`Free form; tables are row/column structures inside markup`
ceiling	`Whole document is usually parsed into memory`	`No formal limit`
