+### Why JsonVariant cannot be converted to char?
+
+The `char` type has been intentionally disabled to avoid an ambiguity.
+
+Imagine you have this input: `{'time':'8'}`; what should be the value of `root["time"]` as a `char`?
+
+I see two possible answers:
+
+* Either you see `char` as an integer; in that case, the result should be `8`.
+* Or you see `char` as a character; in that case, the result should be `56` (the ASCII code of character `8`)
+
+Since there is not good answer to this question, the `char` type has been disabled, but `unsigned char` and `signed char` works as integers.
+
+However, I highly encourage you to use `char` to store characters, and `int8_t` or `uint8_t` to store integers. If you compile with Arduino, you also have the [byte](https://www.arduino.cc/en/Reference/Byte) type.
