FAQ
Is my JSON sent to a server?
No. Parsing and formatting happen entirely in your browser.
What if JSON is invalid?
The validator and format actions show parse errors with messages to help you fix syntax.
Can I format large files?
Very large payloads may slow the tab. For huge files, use a desktop editor.
Does it support JSON5 or comments?
Standard JSON only—comments and trailing commas are not accepted.
