The escaped slash (`\\/`) is interpreted in JSON simply as a normal slash, but distinguishes the timestamp from a normal string literal. We use the type "date" in the documentation below. Additionally, the special strings "\\/never\\/" and "\\/forever\\/" are recognized to represent the end of time. |
