The JSON form of a tiddler when a tiddler is GET or PUT. When getting a list of tiddlers a list of dictionaries is returned. When getting just one, a single dictionary is returned.

The form of the dictionary is quite variable, as a tiddler is really just a dictionary of key/value pairs, available at a known URL. The JSON serialization is that dictionary serialized.

When getting a tiddler as JSON you can expect at least the following form:

{
    "text": "the text of the tiddler",
    "created": "YYYYMMDDHHMMSS",
    "modified": "YYYYMMDDHHMMSS",
    "modifier": "name of most recent editor",
    "tags": ["list","of","tags"],
    "fields": {
        "customfield": "arbitrary string",
        "lowercase": "..."
    },
    "uri": "the absolute uri of the tiddler in its bag"
}

When putting a tiddler as JSON, all fields are optional.
