# Parsers

UCX offers parsers for two common formats: key/value [properties](properties.h.md) and [JSON](json.h.md).

Both parser APIs are implemented in a memory efficient way.
Depending on the use case, the properties parser can avoid memory allocations completely
and the JSON parser minimizes allocations as good as possible.
Due to the nature of JSON, avoiding allocations altogether is of course not possible, though.
