RFC 8259 chapter 7 says:
All Unicode characters may be placed within the
quotation marks, except for the characters that MUST be escaped:
quotation mark, reverse solidus, and the control characters (U+0000
through U+001F).
I have no preference for either, as long as '/' and other non-control characters are not (unnecessarily) escaped.
Using tested and maintained code like json_writer could be beneficial. If you hold the copyright, there should be no license issues.
