FAQ

What's the difference between YAML and JSON?

YAML focuses more on readability, using indentation for hierarchy, supporting comments and multiple data types; JSON has stricter structure using braces and brackets, widely used as API data exchange format. Both can be converted to each other.

Will conversion lose data?

No. This tool ensures complete data preservation during conversion, including nested structures, arrays, special characters. YAML-specific comments are preserved as special fields when converting to JSON.

Which YAML features are supported?

Supports most YAML 1.1 and 1.2 specification features including multi-line strings, anchors and aliases (& and *), tag types, flow syntax, etc. Unsupported features will show prompts during conversion.

Can it handle YAML/JSON with Chinese characters?

Fully supported. This tool correctly handles UTF-8 encoding, supporting conversion of Chinese, Japanese, Korean and all Unicode characters without garbled text issues.

Can conversion results be used directly for config files?

Yes. Conversion results strictly follow target format specifications and can be directly used for Docker Compose, Kubernetes, GitHub Actions, package.json and other configuration files.
