Transmute JSON-LD

Transmute JSON-LD on GitHub

This repo and website are designed to enable the most frictionless experience for developing software that relies on JSON-LD.

JSON-LD 1.1 is being formally specified in the W3C JSON-LD Working Group. To participate in this work, please join the W3C and then join the Working Group.

You can use this repo as a guide for extending contexts, and ensuring that your JSON-LD is functioning as expected and fully documented. This should help you make the case that your extensions should be included, or eliminate the need for them to be included.

Before proceeding, please review:

• Example context for OpenPgpSignature2019 Linked Data Signature Suite

Motivation

When working with the W3C JSON-LD contexts, you may need to extend or add to them. You should still attempt to push your changes into the correct W3C context, such as:

• https://w3id.org/security
• https://w3id.org/security/v1
• https://w3id.org/did
• https://w3id.org/did/v1

However, these contexts and documentation are very selective and strict, and you may find it difficult to contribute, especially if your work is experimental.

Examples

JSON Schema + JSON-LD Together
