Here's a quick example of a JSON structure you can edit with SJE:

{
  "name": "My Awesome Theme",
  "version": "1.0.0",
  "author": "Paul Fleury",
  "settings": {
    "color": {
      "palette": [
        {
          "name": "Primary",
          "slug": "primary",
          "color": "#0073aa"
        },
        {
          "name": "Secondary",
          "slug": "secondary",
          "color": "#23282d"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}
