I’m working on building a new windows 8 app using javascript. I want to have some local json files to use as configuration files, but I’m unsure of how I can read those in to my system.
I’ve seen HTML5s File Api and JSONP solutions, but both seem like browser-targeted solutions. I browsed the MSDN docs but couldn’t find a MSFT API for this either.
