Question 1

What is the difference between JSON and YAML?

Accepted Answer

JSON uses braces and quotes, while YAML is indentation-based and more human-readable. YAML supports comments and is widely used in config files like Docker Compose and Kubernetes manifests.

Question 2

Is there a size limit for conversion?

Accepted Answer

Since it runs in the browser, typical config files and API responses convert without issues. Very large files (several MB) may slow down.

Question 3

Does it support complex YAML syntax?

Accepted Answer

It supports basic key-value pairs, nested objects, arrays, and multi-line strings (| and >). Advanced features like anchors (&) and aliases (*) are not supported.

Question 4

Is my data sent to a server?

Accepted Answer

No. All conversions happen in your browser. Your input data is never sent to any server.
