A professional online JSON formatter with beautify, compress, validate and multi-format conversion capabilities. Smart handling of JavaScript objects, single quotes, trailing commas and other non-standard formats.

## Features

### Core Functions

- **JSON Formatting** - Format compressed JSON data into readable format with custom indentation
- **JSON Compression** - Compress JSON data by removing unnecessary spaces and line breaks
- **JSON Validation** - Validate JSON data syntax correctness with detailed error messages
- **Format Conversion** - Support conversion between JSON and other formats (YAML, XML, CSV)

### Smart Processing

- **Allow Unquoted Keys** - Supports JavaScript object literal format without requiring quotes for keys
- **Allow Single Quotes** - Automatically converts single-quoted strings to standard double-quote format with smart escape handling
- **Allow Trailing Commas** - Supports trailing commas and automatically cleans up unnecessary commas

## Use Cases

### Development & Debug

Direct copy-paste of JavaScript object code for quick formatting and validation.

### Config File Conversion

Convert JS config-like format to standard JSON format.

### Code Cleanup

Remove unnecessary trailing commas and standardize quote formats.

### Format Standardization

Unify mixed quote formats to standard JSON specification.

## Example

**Input (Supported Format):**

```javascript

'email': "john@example.com",
hobbies: ['reading', "coding", 'gaming',],
address: {

city: 'New York',
},
}
```

**Output (Standard JSON):**

```json
{
"name": "John Doe",
"age": 30,
"email": "john@example.com",
"hobbies": ["reading", "coding", "gaming"],
"address": {

}
```
