Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about JSON to YAML conversion.

Why convert JSON to YAML?

YAML is more human-readable than JSON for configuration files, especially those with deeply nested structures. Many tools like Docker Compose, Kubernetes, Ansible, and GitHub Actions use YAML for their configuration files.

Does the conversion preserve data types?

Yes. Numbers, booleans, strings, arrays, and nested objects are all properly converted. YAML natively supports the same data types as JSON, so no information is lost during conversion.

Is my data sent to a server?

No. All conversion happens entirely in your browser using JavaScript. Your JSON data never leaves your device.

Can I convert large JSON files?

Yes. The converter handles files up to 100MB. For very large files, processing happens in milliseconds since it runs directly in your browser without network delays.

What YAML formatting options are available?

You can customize indentation size (2, 4, or 8 spaces) and toggle flow style for compact inline formatting of arrays and objects.
