Frequently Asked Questions

What does the JSON Viewer do?

It validates your JSON and renders it with syntax highlighting — colour-coding strings, numbers, booleans, nulls, keys, and brackets for easy reading.

Does it validate JSON as well?

Yes. If your JSON contains any syntax error, the viewer shows a clear error message with the location of the problem.

Can I use it to pretty-print minified JSON?

Yes — paste any minified JSON and the viewer instantly formats it with proper indentation and line breaks.

Is there a size limit?

No. Paste JSON of any size — it all runs locally in your browser without any upload.

Is my JSON data private?

Yes. Nothing is sent to any server. All processing happens client-side in your browser.

What colour means what in the output?

Strings are green, numbers are blue, booleans and null are orange, object keys are purple, and brackets/braces are grey.
