JSMN

jsmn (pronounced like 'jasmine') is a minimalistic JSON parser in C. It can be easily integrated into resource-limited or embedded projects.

You can find more information about JSON format at json.org

Library sources are available at https://bitbucket.org/zserge/jsmn

The web page with some information about jsmn can be found at http://zserge.com/jsmn.html
