Creating Deftly is an open source project devoted to making automation of Adobe products easier with a unified API, chainable commands, and in-app gui tools.
If you're looking for an easier way to work with Adobe's ExtendScript, .jsx, or .jsfl then consider using and contributing to CreatingDeftly.
This is still a new initiative and many applications are not yet supported.
Some of the APIs make use of json2.js - https://github.com/douglascrockford/JSON-js
