JSONCrush – Compress JSON into URL friendly strings

I just open sourced an amazingly useful tool called JSONCrush. This simple system allows for excellent compression of URI encoded JSON strings using the JSCrush algorithm. It seems almost like magic how well it works. The minified version is under 2k of JavaScript!

Example

JSON – 103 bytes

{"students":[{"name":"Jack","age":17},{"name":"Jill","age":16},{"name":"Sue","age":16}],"class":"math"}

URI Encoded Component – 199 bytes

%7B%22students%22%3A%5B%7B%22name%22%3A%22Jack%22%2C%22age%22%3A17%7D%2C%7B%22name%22%3A%22Jill%22%2C%22age%22%3A16%7D%2C%7B%22name%22%3A%22Sue%22%2C%22age%22%3A16%7D%5D%2C%22class%22%3A%22math%22%7D

JSONCrushed – 81 bytes! 59% smaller

('students!%5B*Jack-7.Jill-6.Sue-6)%5D~class!'math')*('name!'-'~age!1.)%2C*%01.-*
