+//! The Value enum, a loosely typed way of representing any valid JSON value.
+//!
+//! # Constructing JSON
+//!
+//! Serde JSON provides a [`json!` macro][macro] to build `serde_json::Value`
+//! objects with very natural JSON syntax.
+//!
+//! ```
+//! use serde_json::json;
+//!
+//! fn main() {
+//!     // The type of `john` is `serde_json::Value`
+//!     let john = json!({
+//!         "name": "John Doe",
+//!         "age": 43,
+//!         "phones": [
+//!             "+44 1234567",
+//!             "+44 2345678"
+//!         ]
+//!     });
+//!
+//!     println!("first phone number: {}", john["phones"][0]);
+//!
+//!     // Convert to a string of JSON and print it out
+//!     println!("{}", john.to_string());
+//! }
+//! ```
+//!
+//! The `Value::to_string()` function converts a `serde_json::Value` into a
+//! `String` of JSON text.
+//!
+//! One neat thing about the `json!` macro is that variables and expressions can
+//! be interpolated directly into the JSON value as you are building it. Serde
+//! will check at compile time that the value you are interpolating is able to
+//! be represented as JSON.
+//!
+//! ```
+//! # use serde_json::json;
+//! #
+//! # fn random_phone() -> u16 { 0 }
+//! #
+//! let full_name = "John Doe";
+//! let age_last_year = 42;
+//!
+//! // The type of `john` is `serde_json::Value`
+//! let john = json!({
+//!     "name": full_name,
+//!     "age": age_last_year + 1,
+//!     "phones": [
+//!         format!("+44 {}", random_phone())
+//!     ]
+//! });
+//! ```
+//!
+//! A string of JSON data can be parsed into a `serde_json::Value` by the
+//! [`serde_json::from_str`][from_str] function. There is also
+//! [`from_slice`][from_slice] for parsing from a byte slice `&[u8]` and
+//! [`from_reader`][from_reader] for parsing from any `io::Read` like a File or
+//! a TCP stream.
+//!
+//! ```
+//! use serde_json::{json, Value, Error};
+//!
+//! fn untyped_example() -> Result<(), Error> {
+//!     // Some JSON input data as a &str. Maybe this comes from the user.
+//!     let data = r#"
+//!         {
+//!             "name": "John Doe",
+//!             "age": 43,
+//!             "phones": [
+//!                 "+44 1234567",
+//!                 "+44 2345678"
+//!             ]
+//!         }"#;
+//!
+//!     // Parse the string of data into serde_json::Value.
+//!     let v: Value = serde_json::from_str(data)?;
+//!
+//!     // Access parts of the data by indexing with square brackets.
+//!     println!("Please call {} at the number {}", v["name"], v["phones"][0]);
+//!
+//!     Ok(())
+//! }
+//! #
+//! # untyped_example().unwrap();
+//! ```
