Frequently Asked Questions

Is my JSON data sent to a server?
No. All JSON processing happens in your browser. Your data never leaves your device.
What file sizes does it support?
Tested reliably up to 50MB. Performance depends on your device's available memory.
Can I use it offline?
Once the page loads, the tool works fully offline since all processing is client-side.
Does it support JSON5 or JSONC?
Currently supports standard JSON only. JSON5 support is planned.
