Our JSON Formatter engine is open source under HiMat Technology. Star the project, inspect the source, report issues, or contribute on GitHub.
Unlike traditional online JSON formatters that send payloads to remote logging servers or API gateways, HiMat's engine runs 100% inside your browser session using local V8 / JavaScript string parsing algorithms. Your API keys, database dumps, and user payloads are never transmitted over the internet.
No. The HiMat JSON Formatter & Validator operates 100% locally inside your web browser. Neither your JSON string nor file contents are ever sent across the network.
Our intelligent local parser normalizes single quotes to double quotes, removes trailing commas, adds quotes to unquoted object keys, and strips comments, turning common broken JSON snippets into strictly valid RFC 8259 JSON.
Yes! Because formatting runs client-side in your modern browser engine, files up to tens of megabytes are handled directly in memory without server timeout limits.
