JSON comments on GH

json-in-markdown.md

What happens if you tell GitHub it's JSON

{
  "hello": "world" // I want my comments!
}

Use jsonc as the language instead

{
  "hello": "world" // I want my comments!
}

Or just tell GitHub it's JavaScript

{
  "hello": "world" // I want my comments!
}

real.json

{
  "hello": "world" // I want my comments!
}

@dantebarba one way to cheat it seems to be yaml
https://stackoverflow.com/a/58946269

{
  "hello": "world" # I want my comments!
}

@CryDeTaan thanks!

Thanks! I just wrote about this here, and referenced you: Stack Overflow: Can comments be used in JSON?

Testing today:

```json

{
  "hello": "world" // comment
}

```jsonc

{
  "hello": "world" // comment
}

```json5

{
  "hello": "world" // comment
}

testing

{
  "test": 1234 // using jsonc
}

  "hello": "world" // I want my comments!
