FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

What does a JSON validator do?

It checks whether the text follows JSON syntax and can be parsed by normal JSON tools.

Are single quotes valid in JSON?

No. JSON requires double quotes around strings and property names.

Why does a trailing comma break JSON?

JSON is stricter than JavaScript objects, so a comma after the last item is not allowed.

Is JSON Validator free to use?

Yes. JSON Validator is free to use on ToolsLuv for quick developer checks, formatting and copy-ready output without creating an account.

Does JSON Validator upload my snippet?

JSON Validator is designed as a browser-first utility for everyday snippets. Still, do not paste passwords, private tokens or sensitive customer data into any online tool.

Is this tool private?

Yes. The work runs in your browser, so your input is not uploaded to a server by ToolsLuv.
