> **You've got flat files?  That's understandable.**

Jiffy is a flat file editor written in JavaScript.  It's a quick, easy way to view and edit your data files using only a browser. 

Jiffy uses the [JavaScript File API](https://www.w3.org/TR/file-upload/) so that everything is done locally.  Your file data is kept private and never sent to a server.  It supports [modern HTML5 browsers](http://caniuse.com/#feat=fileapi).

JSON files define file layouts, data types, and formats.  Use these to teach Jiffy your own custom file formats without writing any code.  For details, see the [wiki](https://github.com/derekwlms/jiffy/wiki).  Jiffy includes definitions for formats such as NACHA ACH files.

You can run Jiffy locally or use our [online version](http://jiffy.paymenthorizons.com). Create your own data files or download some [samples](http://paymenthorizons.com/jiffyfiles/jiffy-data.zip).
