FAQ Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between YAML and Properties formats?

YAML is hierarchical and human-readable with support for nested structures, while Properties files use flat key=value pairs. YAML is more expressive, while Properties are simpler and widely supported in Java applications.

How are nested YAML structures handled in Properties conversion?

Nested YAML structures are flattened using dot notation (parent.child.property=value), making hierarchical data accessible in the flat Properties format while maintaining logical organization.

Can I convert in both directions reliably?

Yes, the tool supports bidirectional conversion. Properties convert cleanly to YAML, and YAML can be flattened to Properties, though some YAML features like comments and complex structures may be simplified.

Is this useful for Spring Boot and Java applications?

Very useful! Spring Boot supports both YAML and Properties for configuration. The converter helps migrate between formats, share configurations between different deployment environments, or integrate with legacy systems.

Are special characters and encoding handled properly?

Yes, the tool properly handles Unicode characters, escape sequences, and special characters that need encoding in Properties files while maintaining character integrity during conversion.
