jsonerator
==========
Overview
--------
Web interface to describe a person, product and/or place in JSON-LD for [Smart Spaces](http://smartspac.es), for a [JSON Silo](https://www.npmjs.com/package/json-silo), or as structured data embedded in a website for the benefit of the Semantic Web and the Internet of Things. Simply enter any or all of the fields at left and the JSON will automatically be populated. Try it live via GitHub pages: [reelyactive.github.io/jsonerator/](http://reelyactive.github.io/jsonerator/)

We've attempted to keep the code simple so that it can easily be restyled and embedded into other webpages. For reference, consult the reelyActive [Angular Style Guide](https://github.com/reelyactive/angular-style-guide).
Installation
------------
Simply clone the repository and open the index.html file in your favourite web browser.
JSON-LD and schema.org
----------------------
All data is represented in [JSON-LD](http://json-ld.org/) using [schema.org](http://schema.org/) as a context. We selected this combination after much reading, research and debate. Interested in the history of how we came to this decision? Check out:
- [JSON-LD and Why I Hate the Semantic Web](http://manu.sporny.org/2014/json-ld-origins-2/) by Manu Sporny
- The [Linked Data](http://www.manning.com/dwood/) book by David Wood
- [The Semantic Web, Linked Data & JSON-LD](http://univership.org/projects/qDM2dZP5F5MZ5zgMA/blog), a tale of "Great Ideas & A Lot of Problems" by George Koulouris

Notes
-----
There is minimal validation of fields at this time aside from what is automatically checked by form . Garbage in, structured garbage out...
