It isn’t in itself. Neither is any AST. A programming language is the semantic rules that can execute it.

From the guy who created JSON:

>JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) is a lightweight data-interchange format.

From Wikipedia:

>JSON is an open standard file format and data interchange format

Now tell me how JSON is a programming language.
