My Personal Experience
As a developer, I have found the JSON Formatter Chrome extension to be an invaluable tool. It has significantly improved my workflow by saving me time and effort in parsing and understanding JSON data.
One of the highlights for me is the dark mode option. Working long hours staring at bright screens can be tiring on the eyes, but with the dark mode, I can now focus on the data without any distractions.
The auto-formatting feature works seamlessly, making even the messiest JSON structures easy to read. The syntax highlighting is a great addition, as it helps me quickly identify key elements and properties.
Collapsible trees with indent guides have been a game-changer for navigating large JSON files. With just a few clicks, I can expand or collapse nested objects, making it a breeze to find the information I need.
The clickable URLs feature is particularly useful when dealing with JSON that includes external resources. I can access those resources directly from the JSON Formatter, saving me the hassle of copying and pasting URLs into a separate browser tab.
One concern that some users have raised in their reviews is the performance impact on non-JSON pages. However, based on my experience, the impact is negligible, with less than 1 millisecond of delay.
It's worth mentioning that if you encounter any issues with the extension, you may need to disable other DOM-modifying extensions that could potentially clash with it. The developer is actively addressing issues, so open an issue on the GitHub page if you encounter any problems.
Protecting Your Privacy
Privacy is a top priority with the JSON Formatter Chrome extension. There is no tracking, no advertising, and no hidden agenda. You can use this extension with peace of mind, knowing that your data and browsing habits are secure.
Ready to enhance your JSON parsing experience? Head over to the Chrome Web Store and add the JSON Formatter extension to your browser. Say goodbye to tangled JSON and hello to organized and readable data!

Dude not working on long JSON response!
Works so naturally that I forget it's not just a part of Chrome. Great stuff!
Simple and useful noch only during development. No idea why this is an extension not a built-in feature.
thanks, this very useful
Awesome
nice ...
Great extension! ❤️❤️???
Super!
very useful
it's fine
So good at formatting my JSONs.
it does work good when it works. But there is some seriously bad logic on detecting wheter page is json or not, if there is a pre tag that kinda looks like json, it pretty much corrupts a regular html page that has nothing to do with json! The fix is easy, if you dont want to respect the content type tag (which is a form of standard and should be respected, or create a setting for it) then it should not scan page for all <pre> elements but instead check if there is ONLY 1 pre element then consider it, its bad because if a complete html page is perfectly valid and there is a small pre tag in the end of html, it will take that tag and rearrange the html making regular non json pages display incorrectly
This is amazing! So much easier than copying and pasting into an online formatter. I didn't realize this was a thing until just barely and it works flawlessly. Makes life so much easier!
