Drive-In Window JSON is an esolang by User:BoundedBeans capturing the semantics of Drive-In Window but in JSON format.

Namespaced IDs[edit]

A namespaced ID follows this format:

Author.ExtensionName/IndividualID

The Author, ExtensionName, and IndividualID should not contain periods or slashes.

The standard author is Diw (for Drive-In Window), which is reserved. If you go by Diw, use %Diw, if you go by %Diw, use `PDiw, if you go by `PDiw, use `GPDiw, etc. All three names should be in PascalCaseLikeThis. The characters @#$%` are also reserved for various purposes. Use `A `H `D `P `G to encode those.

If two or more authors make something together, with no particular named grouping/company/etc., they should use Combine$(author name 1)$(author name 2)$(author name 3)$(etc.) as the author.
