# JSON Metadata Standard

ERC created by Pierre <https://github.com/bpierre>

## ERC Overview

This ERC proposes adding a TypeScript specification for a JSON file representing metadata. In NFTs, metadata are described in a JSON file; this specification defines a JSON file.

Basically just defines metadata schema in TypeScript programming language functions. The functions are described in the ERC itself.

This ERC specification is compatible with both ERC-7211 and ERC-1155.
