JSON Files and emacs
I got tired of emacs not knowing I was essentially editing javascript files while writing JSON so I started to look into JS2-mode until I realised it was kind of overkill. Then I saw this comment that suggested telling emacs to use the inbuilt syntax handling for javascrpt for json files too!
(setq auto-mode-alist (cons '("\\.json\\'" . js-mode) auto-mode-alist))
