There's no limit to how big a JSON file can be. JSON databases can become difficult to manage/query efficiently on deeply nested structures, but with a good, simple structure JSON can be very efficient and perfect for database applications.
The entirety of the Chattable database is a 10mb JSON file, hundreds of chats, and hundreds of thousands of messages. Not to mention account & chat data. If you can keep the structure simple, it will work for any project.
