FAQ Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between JSON and YAML?

JSON is more compact and widely used for APIs, while YAML is more human-readable and commonly used for configuration files. YAML supports comments and has cleaner syntax, while JSON is faster to parse.

Can I convert between both formats reliably?

Yes, the tool provides accurate bidirectional conversion. JSON converts cleanly to YAML, and YAML converts to JSON with some caveats (YAML comments are lost in JSON conversion since JSON doesn't support comments).

Are YAML comments preserved during conversion?

Comments are preserved when converting YAML to YAML, but are lost when converting YAML to JSON since JSON format doesn't support comments. Always backup your original YAML files when comments are important.

Is this useful for DevOps and configuration management?

Very useful! Many DevOps tools use YAML for configuration (Docker Compose, Kubernetes, CI/CD pipelines) while APIs often use JSON. The converter helps bridge these different configuration and data formats.

Can I validate syntax during conversion?

Yes, the tool typically validates syntax for both formats and highlights errors in malformed JSON or YAML, helping you identify and fix formatting issues before using the data in your applications.
