Thanks for the tip, it will help with both Pd Vanilla and Purr-Data.

I will build simple patches, not large projects, and once I'll know 
which extensions I need, I'll load them via a dedicated config.

I was hoping to manage a large json file, but it'd be much better to do 
it from some other software. I was planning to use pyext (as I did in 
2003), but sadly the latest version is not built with python3.

I was also hoping to use the Purr-Data GUI like a web browser with 
HTML5, WebGL and all the rest, but I'm not sure it's possible.
