Are there any best practices or tools recommended for validating JSON data in PHP?

One recommended approach to validating JSON data in PHP is to use the json_decode() function along with the json_last_error() function to check for any parsing errors. Additionally, you can use JSON Schema for more advanced validation of JSON data. 

$jsonData = '{"name": "John", "age": 30}';
$decodedData = json_decode($jsonData);

if ($decodedData === null && json_last_error() !== JSON_ERROR_NONE) {
    echo "Invalid JSON data";
} else {
    echo "JSON data is valid";
}
