Jackson is a widely used open-source Java library best known for its powerful capabilities in reading and writing JSON-encoded data. In this talk, Tatu Saloranta — the creator and lead of the Jackson project — will explore Jackson's origins and evolution, provide an overview of its current features, architecture, and supported use cases, and share future plans for the project.
