This is normal,
JSON has never been rendered, it is simply a helper at the moment.

In future, JSON field will propose :
- a sub form in the FORM
- a sub layout in the FLY
- a sub layout in the GRID

At the moment, when you instance a JSON field it simply place this code in populateObjects()
if (!empty($item->my_object_json) && is_string($item->my_object_json))
{
	$registry = new JRegistry;
	$registry->loadString($item->my_object_json);
	$item->my_object_json = $registry->toObject();
}

And in save() :
if (isset($data['my_object_json']) && is_array($data['my_object_json']))
{
	$registry = new JRegistry;
	$registry->loadArray($data['my_object_json']);
	$data['my_object_json'] = (string) $registry;
}

Simply a coder/decoder. Nothing else.
I should explain it better in the docs.

Note : The docs are under construction, I am currently creating that,
I will release it during 2017. It is gonna be beautiful, but it is a long way.
Coding is now a piece of cake

Amazing Tool !
And only tool I know that allows complete Scaffolding in terms of component creation. It really saves loads of time (actually much more than that). Simple architecture enables quick and painless changes at any time. Code is clean and consintent. It's just... what's the word... neat! :) Great work! You should definetely try this one!
