• Next.js uses JSON5 for some configuration files? Code
• JupyterLab uses JSON5 for its settings as of v1.0.0
• anymarkup can read JSON5.
• i18next's sync-fs-backend and node-fs-backend can both read JSON5.
• json5format is a Rust-based API plus sample command line tool (formatjson5) for reformatting JSON5 documents into a customizable, consistent style (notably, preserving data representation/precision and contextual comments).

Apps
