Installation

Jolt ships as three NuGet packages. Most projects need exactly one of the first two.

Package	Use it when	Version
Jolt.Json.Newtonsoft	Your app already uses Newtonsoft.Json
Jolt.Json.DotNet	Your app uses System.Text.Json
Jolt	You’re building your own JSON integration on top of the core language

The first two depend on Jolt, so you only reference it directly when building your own integration, as those packages have done.

# Newtonsoft.Json
dotnet add package Jolt.Json.Newtonsoft

# System.Text.Json
dotnet add package Jolt.Json.DotNet

Supported targets

All packages are multi-targeted and support .NET Standard 2.0, .NET Standard 2.1, .NET 8.0, and .NET 10.0.

Note on System.Text.Json

Jolt.Json.DotNet has one extra dependency, JsonPath.Net, because System.Text.Json doesn’t include JSON Path support out of the box.

Build status

Next: write your first transformer.
