The original JSON API plugin was an important part of WordPress history. Dan Phiffer built the early work around 2009-2010, originally for the Museum of Modern Art blog, long before WordPress had its own REST API. By the time many WordPress site owners adopted it around 2013, there was still no default WordPress REST API…
