Re:Ask HN: Do you use JSON Schema? Help us shape its future ... by jamesappledev on Monday January 30, 2023 @07:24PM (#34588939)
I think JSON allows both of your use cases, you'll just have to define your own deserialization.

We've used { "__type": "DOG" } as metadata flags in GraphQL and JSON API's for a long time.

I rarely see an API return anything other than an ISO8601 UTC datetime string anymore other than Xero's horrific .NET(?) string " /Date(1326480130277+1300)/"
