JSON Formatter & Validator

Paste raw JSON. Get it back pretty-printed, minified, or sorted. Syntax errors are pinpointed at the line and column, not just thrown back at you as Unexpected token.

Why a JSON Formatter?

API responses arrive minified, log files arrive as one giant line, and config files arrive with whatever quirky indentation the previous engineer favoured. This tool gives you a single canonical shape — and if your JSON is broken, it points at the exact character that broke it.

Nothing leaves your browser. The textarea content is parsed by JSON.parse, re-emitted by JSON.stringify, and shown back. No upload step, no API call.
