Php code is in the middle

Others are strings in json format

Json data seems to be being pieced together

I really want to know what the code is. is it javascript?

This is basically not php
The vast majority of the entire file is json

....
?>
Php is in this symbol. you embed php into json, and php plays a judgment role.

If you pass the root parameter
Generate a json data
Otherwise, the nap will generate another json data

This json data will be processed by another js.

Out of context, this is meaningless code

Isn't this a table?
Okay, I'm a beginner =
