2020-01-04	JSON-LD	The Semantic Web isn't just about putting data on the web. It is about making links, so that a person or machine can explore the web of data. With linked data, when you have some of it, you can find other, related, data. Like the web of hypertext, the web of data is constructed with documents on the web. However, unlike the web of hypertext, where links are relationships anchors in hypertext documents written in HTML, for data they links between arbitrary things described by RDF. The URIs identify any kind of object or concept.	single	web-standards/w3c/wg/json-ld/json-ld/	web-standards/w3c/json-ld-wg/json-ld/ web-standards/linked-data/JSON-LD/ specs-standards/JSON-LD/ specs-standards/linked-data/JSON-LD/	https://decentralized-id.com/web-standards/w3c/json-ld-wg/json-ld/	Web Standards	Digital Bazaar JSON-LD Credentials Community Group Veres One Linked Data W3C Verifiable Credentials RDF Schema.org	2020-01-09

• JSON-LD for Beginners
• Why JSON-LD

  JSON-LD is able to accomplish the same thing, but does not require HTML. It can exist in and of itself. In short, JSON-LD can be inserted into your web page without disrupting the current content or HTML.

• On JSON-LD and the semantics of Identity Orie Steele

  In this post, we’ll explore how JSON-LD is used in a number of contexts including decentralized identity and verifiable credentials. We’ll also cover the basics of what you should know before using JSON-LD and how you can contribute to software and standards that rely on it.

• What Is JSON-LD Markup and Why Is It Better than Schema.org?

  If you understand how to use schema.org, but do not dare to mark pages up because of the complexity of the process, this article is for you. There is an effective and easy-to-use alternative - the JSON-LD format.

• Verifiable Credentials Flavors Explained Kaliya IdentityWoman

  Below are the three primary flavors of VCs discussed in this paper. All have more than one critical implementation in various stages of production. There are advocated variations of these types, but they are less common.

  • JSON-LD family with LD Signatures or with BBS+ Signatures that enable Zero Knowledge Proofs (ZKP or ZKPs)
  • JSON with JSON Web Signatures, precisely in the form of a JSON Web Token (JWT)
  • ZKP withCamenisch-LysyanskayaSignatures (ZKP-CL)

• codemeta/codemeta

  CodeMeta contributors are creating a minimal metadata schema for science software and code, in JSON and XML. The goal of CodeMeta is to create a concept vocabulary that can be used to standardize the exchange of software metadata across repositories and organizations. CodeMeta started by comparing the software metadata used across multiple repositories, which resulted in the CodeMeta Metadata Crosswalk. That crosswalk was then used to generate a set of software metadata concepts, which were arranged into a JSON-LD context for serialization.
