Add JSON Feed to your Jekyll site

You might have heard of a neat new project called JSON Feed. It’s a project to create a spec to create feeds in JSON. It’s easier to parse than RSS/Atom’s XML. JSON is also easier to check for errors: either it parses or it doesn’t. It’s easier to write than In my opinion, it’s a huge improvement on shipping serialized content. I have added a JSON feed to this site, and we’re working to add it to the jekyll-feed plugin or ship as a separate plugin.

If you want it now, I’d recommend using @vallieres’s feed.json template.

John Gruber wrote about a JSON Feed Viewer, too, which shows off the power of this stuff.
