Frequently Asked Questions
Does this validate JSON5 or JSONC?
No. This validator strictly enforces RFC 8259 JSON. Comments and trailing commas (JSON5 extensions) will fail validation.
Is validation done client-side?
Yes. Native browser JSON.parse() validates locally. No data is sent externally.
Is this tool completely local?
Yes, validation occurs via the native browser JavaScript engine. No external requests are made.
