Question 1

What is a JSON file?

Accepted Answer

JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) is a lightweight data-interchange format. It is easy for humans to read and write and easy for machines to parse and generate. It is commonly used for configuration files (like `manifest.json` for web apps), API responses, and data storage.

Question 2

How do I use the View Any File JSON Viewer, Editor & Inspector?

Accepted Answer

Click the "Open Local File" button to select a .json file (including `manifest.json` files). The content will be displayed with syntax highlighting. You can then edit the content directly in the editor and use the download button to save your changes.

Question 3

Can I edit and save my JSON files?

Accepted Answer

Yes! You can edit the JSON content directly in the browser. Once you're done, click the 'Download' button (download icon) to save your modified JSON content as a new file to your computer.

Question 4

Does this tool validate the JSON?

Accepted Answer

The editor provides syntax highlighting which helps identify basic structural issues. However, for strict validation against a schema or more complex validation, specialized JSON linters or validators might be more suitable. Invalid JSON may not highlight correctly or might cause issues if you try to use it elsewhere.
