Why Use JSON Tools?

JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) is the standard format for data exchange in modern web development. APIs, configuration files, and data storage all rely on JSON. However, working with raw JSON can be challengingβ€”especially when dealing with large files, nested structures, or subtle formatting issues.

These tools help developers work more efficiently by automating common tasks like formatting, validation, comparison, and visualization. All processing happens in your browser, ensuring your data remains private and secure.

A Typical JSON Workflow

Here's how developers typically use these tools together:

1
