Hopefully we can agree that's not a lot of code? There's no overhead, no unnecessary setup.
Look at test.c for a bunch of nice examples, mostly all ripped off the json.org site, and

Also, if you find a use for it, you can manually build the objects.
For instance, suppose you wanted to build an array of objects?

cJSON * objects[24];
cJSON *Create_array_of_anything(cJSON **items,int num)
cJSON * Create_array_of_anything(cJSON ** items, int num)

else prev->next=objects[i], objects[i]->prev=prev;
prev=objects[i];
if (!i) root->child = objects[i];
else prev->next = objects[i], objects[i]->prev = prev;
prev = objects[i];
}
return root;
}
and simply: Create_array_of_anything(objects,24);
and simply: Create_array_of_anything(objects, 24);
cJSON doesn't make any assumptions about what order you create things in.
You can attach the objects, as above, and later add children to each
