+[//]: # (title: JSON elements)
+
+Besides converting between JSON strings and Kotlin objects, the Kotlin serialization library also supports working with JSON at a structural level.
+To do this, you can use the [`JsonElement`](https://kotlinlang.org/api/kotlinx.serialization/kotlinx-serialization-json/kotlinx.serialization.json/-json-element/) API, which lets you inspect, modify, and construct JSON structure directly before converting it into a Kotlin type.
+
+`JsonElement` has three direct subtypes that represent the core JSON structures:
+
+* [`JsonPrimitive`](https://kotlinlang.org/api/kotlinx.serialization/kotlinx-serialization-json/kotlinx.serialization.json/-json-primitive/) handles primitive JSON elements such as strings, numbers, booleans, and `null`.
+  Each `JsonPrimitive` stores a string representation of its value, which you can access through its [`JsonPrimitive.content`](https://kotlinlang.org/api/kotlinx.serialization/kotlinx-serialization-json/kotlinx.serialization.json/-json-primitive/content.html) property.
+* [`JsonArray`](https://kotlinlang.org/api/kotlinx.serialization/kotlinx-serialization-json/kotlinx.serialization.json/-json-array/) is a JSON array. It's a Kotlin [`List`](https://kotlinlang.org/api/latest/jvm/stdlib/kotlin.collections/-list/) of `JsonElement` items.
+* [`JsonObject`](https://kotlinlang.org/api/kotlinx.serialization/kotlinx-serialization-json/kotlinx.serialization.json/-json-object/) is a JSON object. It's a Kotlin [`Map`](https://kotlinlang.org/api/latest/jvm/stdlib/kotlin.collections/-map/#kotlin.collections.Map) with `String` keys and `JsonElement` values.
+
+> You can create a `JsonPrimitive` by passing primitive Kotlin types to the [`JsonPrimitive()`](https://kotlinlang.org/api/kotlinx.serialization/kotlinx-serialization-json/kotlinx.serialization.json/-json-primitive.html) function.
+> 
+{style="note"}
+
+## Parse to JSON elements
+
+You can parse a string into a `JsonElement` to work with the JSON structure before converting it into a Kotlin type.
+To do so, use the [`Json.parseToJsonElement()`](https://kotlinlang.org/api/kotlinx.serialization/kotlinx-serialization-json/kotlinx.serialization.json/-json/parse-to-json-element.html) function.
+This function parses the input into a JSON element tree without decoding or deserializing it.
+
+Here's an example:
+
+```kotlin
+// Imports declarations from the serialization and JSON handling libraries
+import kotlinx.serialization.*
+import kotlinx.serialization.json.*
+
+//sampleStart
+fun main() {
+    val element = Json.parseToJsonElement("""
+        {"name":"kotlinx.serialization","language":"Kotlin"}
+    """)
+    // Prints the JsonElement as a valid JSON string
+    println(element)
+    // {"name":"kotlinx.serialization","language":"Kotlin"}
+}
+//sampleEnd
+```
+{kotlin-runnable="true"}
+
+## Access JSON element contents
+
+You can access the contents of a JSON element directly through the extension properties of the `JsonElement` API.
+These extension properties cast the element to a specific subtype,
+and throw an `IllegalArgumentException` if the element doesn't have the expected JSON structure.
+
+The available extension properties are:
+
+* [`jsonPrimitive`](https://kotlinlang.org/api/kotlinx.serialization/kotlinx-serialization-json/kotlinx.serialization.json/json-primitive.html) returns a `JsonPrimitive`.
+* [`jsonArray`](https://kotlinlang.org/api/kotlinx.serialization/kotlinx-serialization-json/kotlinx.serialization.json/json-array.html) returns a `JsonArray`.
+* [`jsonObject`](https://kotlinlang.org/api/kotlinx.serialization/kotlinx-serialization-json/kotlinx.serialization.json/json-object.html) returns a `JsonObject`.
+
+Similarly, [`JsonPrimitive`](https://kotlinlang.org/api/kotlinx.serialization/kotlinx-serialization-json/kotlinx.serialization.json/-json-primitive/) has extension properties for parsing the value as Kotlin primitive types, such as
+[`int`](https://kotlinlang.org/api/kotlinx.serialization/kotlinx-serialization-json/kotlinx.serialization.json/int.html), [`intOrNull`](https://kotlinlang.org/api/kotlinx.serialization/kotlinx-serialization-json/kotlinx.serialization.json/int-or-null.html), [`long`](https://kotlinlang.org/api/kotlinx.serialization/kotlinx-serialization-json/kotlinx.serialization.json/long.html), [`longOrNull`](https://kotlinlang.org/api/kotlinx.serialization/kotlinx-serialization-json/kotlinx.serialization.json/long-or-null.html), and so on.
+
+Here's an example of how you can use these extension properties when processing JSON data:
+
+```kotlin
+// Imports declarations from the serialization and JSON handling libraries
+import kotlinx.serialization.*
+import kotlinx.serialization.json.*
+
+//sampleStart
+fun main() {
+    val element = Json.parseToJsonElement("""
+        {
+            "name": "kotlinx.serialization",
+            "forks": [{"votes": 42}, {"votes": 9000}, {}]
+        }
+    """)
+    val sum = element
+        // Accesses the forks key from the JsonObject
+        .jsonObject["forks"]!!
+
+        // Accesses the value as a JsonArray and sums the votes values from each JsonObject as Int
+        .jsonArray.sumOf { it.jsonObject["votes"]?.jsonPrimitive?.int ?: 0 }
+    println(sum)
+    // 9042
+}
+//sampleEnd
+```
+{kotlin-runnable="true"}
+
+## Create JSON elements
+
+You can create instances of specific `JsonElement` subtypes directly.
+
+To create a `JsonPrimitive`, use the `JsonPrimitive()` function:
+
+```kotlin
+// Imports declarations from the serialization and JSON handling libraries
+import kotlinx.serialization.*
+import kotlinx.serialization.json.*
+
+//sampleStart
+fun main() {
+    // Creates JsonPrimitive values from different Kotlin primitives
+    val number = JsonPrimitive(42)
+    val text = JsonPrimitive("kotlinx.serialization")
+
+    println(number)
+    // 42
+    println(text)
+    // "kotlinx.serialization"
+}
+//sampleEnd
+```
+{kotlin-runnable="true"}
+
+To create `JsonArray` or `JsonObject` elements, use the
+[`buildJsonArray()`](https://kotlinlang.org/api/kotlinx.serialization/kotlinx-serialization-json/kotlinx.serialization.json/build-json-array.html) and [`buildJsonObject()`](https://kotlinlang.org/api/kotlinx.serialization/kotlinx-serialization-json/kotlinx.serialization.json/build-json-object.html) builder functions respectively.
+These provide a DSL to define the JSON structure, similar to [Kotlin's standard library collection builders](constructing-collections.md#create-with-collection-builder-functions), but with JSON-specific overloads and inner builder functions.
+
+Let's look at an example that highlights the key features:
+
+```kotlin
+// Imports declarations from the serialization and JSON handling libraries
+import kotlinx.serialization.*
+import kotlinx.serialization.json.*
+
+//sampleStart
+fun main() {
+    val element = buildJsonObject {
+        // Adds a simple key-value pair to the JsonObject
+        put("name", "kotlinx.serialization")
+        // Adds a nested JsonObject under the owner key
+        putJsonObject("owner") {
+            put("name", "kotlin")
+        }
+        // Adds a JsonArray with multiple JsonObjects
+        putJsonArray("forks") {
+            // Adds a JsonObject to the JsonArray
+            addJsonObject {
+                put("votes", 42)
+            }
+            addJsonObject {
+                put("votes", 9000)
+            }
+        }
+    }
+    // Prints the resulting JSON string
+    println(element)
+    // {"name":"kotlinx.serialization","owner":{"name":"kotlin"},"forks":[{"votes":42},{"votes":9000}]}
+}
+//sampleEnd
+```
+{kotlin-runnable="true"}
+
+### Encode literal JSON content
+<primary-label ref="experimental-general"/>
+
+While the JSON specification doesn't restrict the size or precision of numbers, serializing numbers of arbitrary size with the `JsonPrimitive()` function might lead to some issues.
+
+For example, if you use [`Double`](https://kotlinlang.org/api/latest/jvm/stdlib/kotlin/-double/) for large numbers, the value might get truncated and you lose precision.
+If you use Kotlin/JVM [`BigDecimal`](https://kotlinlang.org/api/latest/jvm/stdlib/kotlin/java.math.-big-decimal/), the value stays precise, but `JsonPrimitive()` encodes the value as a string rather than as a number:
+
+```kotlin
+// Imports necessary declarations from libraries
+import kotlinx.serialization.*
+import kotlinx.serialization.json.*
+import java.math.BigDecimal
+
+//sampleStart
+val format = Json { prettyPrint = true }
+
+fun main() {
+    val pi = BigDecimal("3.141592653589793238462643383279")
+    
+    // Converts the BigDecimal to a Double, causing potential truncation
+    val piJsonDouble = JsonPrimitive(pi.toDouble())
+    // Converts the BigDecimal to a String, preserving the precision but treating it as a string in JSON
+    val piJsonString = JsonPrimitive(pi.toString())
+  
+    val piObject = buildJsonObject {
+        put("pi_double", piJsonDouble)
+        put("pi_string", piJsonString)
+    }
+
+    println(format.encodeToString(piObject))
+    // "pi_double": 3.141592653589793,
+    // "pi_string": "3.141592653589793238462643383279"
+}
+//sampleEnd
+```
+{kotlin-runnable="true"}
+
+In this example, even though `pi` is defined as a number with 30 decimal places, the resulting JSON doesn't reflect this.
+The `Double` value is truncated to 15 decimal places, and the `String` is wrapped in quotes, making it a string instead of a JSON number.
+
+> The [`JsonUnquotedLiteral()`](https://kotlinlang.org/api/kotlinx.serialization/kotlinx-serialization-json/kotlinx.serialization.json/-json-unquoted-literal.html) function is [Experimental](components-stability.md#stability-levels-explained). To opt in, use the `@OptIn(ExperimentalSerializationApi::class)` annotation or the compiler option `-opt-in=kotlinx.serialization.ExperimentalSerializationApi`.
+>
+{style="warning"}
+
+To avoid these issues, you can encode an arbitrary unquoted value, such as the string value of `pi` in this example, using the [`JsonUnquotedLiteral()`](https://kotlinlang.org/api/kotlinx.serialization/kotlinx-serialization-json/kotlinx.serialization.json/-json-unquoted-literal.html) function:
+
+```kotlin
+// Imports necessary declarations from libraries
+import kotlinx.serialization.*
+import kotlinx.serialization.json.*
+import java.math.BigDecimal
+
+//sampleStart
+val format = Json { prettyPrint = true }
+
+fun main() {
+    val pi = BigDecimal("3.141592653589793238462643383279")
+
+    // Encodes the raw JSON content using JsonUnquotedLiteral
+    @OptIn(ExperimentalSerializationApi::class)
+    val piJsonLiteral = JsonUnquotedLiteral(pi.toString())
+
+    // Converts to Double and String
+    val piJsonDouble = JsonPrimitive(pi.toDouble())
+    val piJsonString = JsonPrimitive(pi.toString())
+
+    val piObject = buildJsonObject {
+        put("pi_literal", piJsonLiteral)
+        put("pi_double", piJsonDouble)
+        put("pi_string", piJsonString)
+    }
+
+    // pi_literal now accurately matches the value defined.
+    println(format.encodeToString(piObject))
+    // "pi_literal": 3.141592653589793238462643383279,
+    // "pi_double": 3.141592653589793,
+    // "pi_string": "3.141592653589793238462643383279"
+}
+//sampleEnd
+```
+{kotlin-runnable="true"}
+
+To decode `pi` back to a `BigDecimal`, extract the string content of the `JsonPrimitive`:
+
+```kotlin
+// Imports necessary declarations from libraries
+import kotlinx.serialization.*
+import kotlinx.serialization.json.*
+import java.math.BigDecimal
+
+//sampleStart
+fun main() {
+    val piObjectJson = """
+          {
+              "pi_literal": 3.141592653589793238462643383279
+          }
+      """.trimIndent()
+
+    // Decodes the JSON string into a JsonObject
+    val piObject: JsonObject = Json.decodeFromString(piObjectJson)
+
+    // Extracts the string content from the JsonPrimitive
+    val piJsonLiteral = piObject["pi_literal"]!!.jsonPrimitive.content
+
+    // Converts the string to a BigDecimal
+    val pi = BigDecimal(piJsonLiteral)
+    // Prints the decoded value of pi, preserving all 30 decimal places
+    println(pi)
+    // 3.141592653589793238462643383279
+}
+//sampleEnd
+```
+{kotlin-runnable="true"}
+
+> This example uses a `JsonPrimitive` for simplicity. For more reusable approaches, see
+> [Json Transformations](serialization-transform-json.md).
+>
+{style="tip"}
+
+#### JSON null literal
+
+To avoid creating an inconsistent state, you can't encode the string `"null"` with `JsonUnquotedLiteral`.
+Attempting to do so results in an exception:
+
+```kotlin
+// Imports the necessary libraries
+import kotlinx.serialization.*
+import kotlinx.serialization.json.*
+
+//sampleStart
+@OptIn(ExperimentalSerializationApi::class)
+fun main() {
+    JsonUnquotedLiteral("null")
+    // Exception in thread "main" kotlinx.serialization.json.internal.JsonEncodingException
+}
+//sampleEnd
+```
+{kotlin-runnable="true" validate="false"}
+
+To represent a JSON `null` literal value, use [`JsonNull`](https://kotlinlang.org/api/kotlinx.serialization/kotlinx-serialization-json/kotlinx.serialization.json/-json-null/) instead:
+
+```kotlin
+// Imports declarations from the serialization and JSON handling libraries
+import kotlinx.serialization.*
+import kotlinx.serialization.json.*
+
+//sampleStart
+fun main() {
+    val possiblyNull = JsonNull
+  
+    println(possiblyNull)
+    // null
+}
+//sampleEnd
+```
+{kotlin-runnable="true"}
+
+## Decode Json elements
+
+To decode an instance of the `JsonElement` class into a serializable object, use
+the [`Json.decodeFromJsonElement()`](https://kotlinlang.org/api/kotlinx.serialization/kotlinx-serialization-json/kotlinx.serialization.json/decode-from-json-element.html) function:
+
+```kotlin
+// Imports declarations from the serialization and JSON handling libraries
+import kotlinx.serialization.*
+import kotlinx.serialization.json.*
+
+//sampleStart
+@Serializable
+data class Project(val name: String, val language: String)
+
+fun main() {
+    val element = buildJsonObject {
+        put("name", "kotlinx.serialization")
+        put("language", "Kotlin")
+    }
+
+    // Decodes the JsonElement into a Project object
+    val data = Json.decodeFromJsonElement<Project>(element)
+    println(data)
+    // Project(name=kotlinx.serialization, language=Kotlin)
+}
+//sampleEnd
+```
+{kotlin-runnable="true"}
