You could conceivably serialize the DOM as a JSON object, but the representation would be very difficult to work with:

    {
      "type": "element",
      "name": "blink",
      "attributes": {
        "foo": "bar"
      },
      "children": [
        {
          "type": "text",
          "content": "example text"
        }
      ]
    }
