Why this formatter is worth bookmarking

It formats and validates JSON locally, so API payloads, configuration files, and copied responses never leave your browser.

Output is practical rather than decorative: you can switch between formatted, minified, sorted, and tree views, then download the exact version you need.

Clipboard helpers, JSONC cleanup, string escaping tools, and paste automation make repetitive developer work faster instead of just prettier.

FAQ

Does this send JSON to a server?

No. Parsing and formatting happen entirely in the browser.

Can it handle large JSON?

Yes for normal development use, and the preview updates in a deferred path to keep typing responsive.

Can it clean JSON with comments?

Yes. The JSONC cleanup helper removes line comments, block comments, and trailing commas before you reformat.
