Frequently Asked Questions

The Beautifier focuses on making JSON readable with standard formatting, while the Formatter gives you advanced customization options like choosing indentation size, quote styles, and other formatting preferences to match your specific coding standards.
Yes! Our formatter allows you to choose between single quotes and double quotes. However, note that standard JSON only supports double quotes, so single quotes will create invalid JSON. This option is useful for JavaScript object literals.
You can choose from 2 spaces, 4 spaces, 8 spaces, or tab characters for indentation. This allows you to match your project's existing coding style and team preferences.
Yes, absolutely! The formatter only changes the visual presentation (indentation, spacing, quotes) without modifying the actual data structure, values, or content of your JSON.
While JSON is language-agnostic, our formatter can help you create JSON that's more readable for specific use cases. For example, using single quotes creates JavaScript object literal format, while double quotes maintain standard JSON compliance.
