Frequently Asked Questions
Is my JSON data sent to any remote server?+
No. All formatting, parsing, and tree visualization execute 100% locally in your web browser via client-side JavaScript.
Can this tool fix invalid JSON syntax?+
The validator highlights the exact line and character where parsing failed (such as missing closing brackets or trailing commas) so you can fix errors quickly.
What is the difference between beautify and minify?+
Beautifying adds indentation and line breaks for human readability, whereas minifying removes all unnecessary whitespace to minimize payload size.
