Assuming that the signaling protocol is custom, my JavaScript code
could receive pure SIP messages or XMPP messages, so the SDP comes in
plain or XML format.

I can parse it manually in my JS code (or use some native JS function
to parse them if they are provided) and convert it to JSON prior to
use it for WebRTC function calls.

Other web application could prefer to create its own signaling
protocol and carry SDP directly in JSON format, of course. Freedom for
all.

Best regards.
