Edit JSON with real-time validation, a collapsible tree view, format/minify, and file import — all in your browser.
A JSON editor is more than a text box. RealJSON's free online JSON editor combines a powerful code editor with real-time validation, a collapsible tree view, and format/minify shortcuts — all running locally in your browser with no server required.
Every keystroke is checked against the JSON specification. Errors appear inline as you type with exact position information, so you never have to wonder why your JSON won't parse. Fix problems as you write, not after.
Clean up messy JSON with one click using the built-in formatter, or strip it down to a compact payload with the minifier. You don't need to switch tools mid-workflow.
Load any .json file directly from your machine. When you're done editing, download the result or copy it to the clipboard. Everything stays local — your data never leaves your browser.
The JSON editor is the right tool when you need to modify JSON — not just view or format it. Use it to edit API fixtures before running tests, modify configuration files without opening a full IDE, clean up and reformat JSON from external sources, or add and remove fields from a document interactively.
When viewing (not editing) is enough, the JSON Viewer is faster. For quick formatting without editing, use the JSON Formatter. To validate without modifying, the JSON Validator gives detailed error reporting.
