jsown is a high performance Common Lisp JSON parser. Its aim is to allow for the fast parsing of JSON objects in Common Lisp. Recently, functions and macros have been added to ease the burden of writing and editing jsown objects.

jsown allows you to parse JSON objects quickly to a modifiable Lisp list and write them back. If you only need partial retrieval of objects, jsown allows you to select the keys which you would like to see parsed. jsown also has a JSON writer and some helper methods to alter the JSON objects themselves.
