What is a YAML to JSON Converter?
learn more about this tool
This YAML to JSON converter transforms YAML (Yet Another Markup Language) configs and files into JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) configs and files. It doesn't have any unncessary configuration options. The only thing you can configure is JSON's output. There are three options: indent JSON with spaces, indent JSON with tabs, or compress JSON output.
