JSON-LD is one of 15 APIs that [W3C](https://apis.io/providers/w3c/) publishes on the [APIs.io](https://apis.io/) network. Tagged areas include JSON, Linked Data, Semantic Web, and Standards.

JSON-LD (JSON for Linking Data) is a W3C Recommendation for encoding linked data using JSON. It provides a way to add semantic meaning to JSON documents through the use of @context, @id, and @type keywords, enabling interoperability through shared vocabularies like schema.org.
