# Jotason

A lightweight language that adds syntactic sugar to JSON.

## What is Jotason?

Why would we write this JSON:

```

{

    "_id": 1237,

    "name": "Walter Merriam",

    "birthdate": "08/23/1987",

    "allergic": false,

    "celiac": false,

    "diabetic": false,

    "hypertensive": false,

    "diseases": ["Urinary Tract Infection"],

    "medications": [

        {

            "name": "Amoxicilin",

            "dosage": "500mg/8h"

        },

        {

            "name": "Aspirin",

            "dosage": "3g/1d"

        },

        {

            "name": "Ibuprofen",

            "dosage": "200mg/6h"

        }

    ]

}

```

when we can write this Jotason:

```

{

    _id: 1237,

    name: "Walter Merriam",

    birthdate: "08/23/1987",

    allergic, celiac, diabetic, hypertensive: false,

    diseases: ["Urinary Tract Infection"],

    medications": [

        (name, dosage):

        "Amoxicillin", "500mg/8h",

        "Aspirin", "3g/1d",

        "Ibuprofen", "200mg/6h"

    ]

}

```
