βFrequently Asked Questions
How to fix 'Invalid JSON' error?
Common JSON errors include trailing commas, missing quotes around keys, or using single quotes instead of double quotes. Our tool highlights the line with the error.
Difference between Minify and Beautify?
Minify removes all unnecessary whitespace (newlines, spaces) to reduce file size. Beautify adds indentation and newlines to make the code human-readable.
Is my JSON data safe?
