JSON to YAML Converter

How This JSON to YAML Converter Works

This tool allows you to convert JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) data into YAML (YAML Ain't Markup Language) format. Here's a breakdown of how it works:

1. Input Your JSON: You have two options:
• Paste JSON: Copy your JSON data and paste it into the "Paste your JSON below:" text area.
• Upload JSON File: Click the "Upload File" button to select a JSON file from your computer.
2. Convert: Click the "Convert JSON to YAML" button. The tool will process your input.
3. View the Output: The converted YAML data will appear in the "YAML Output:" text area.
4. Copy or Download:
• Copy: Click the "Copy" button to copy the YAML output to your clipboard. You can then paste it into any other application.
• Download: Click the "Download YAML" button to save the YAML output as a .yaml file on your computer. This button is only enabled after a successful conversion.
5. Clear: Click the "Clear" button to clear both the input and output areas, allowing you to start a new conversion.
6. Swap: Click the "Swap" button to exchange the content of the input and output areas. This is useful if you want to convert YAML back to JSON (though this tool is specifically for JSON to YAML).

The tool uses the js-yaml library to perform the conversion. Your JSON data is processed entirely within your browser, so no data is sent to an external server.
