Why convert YAML to JSON?

Many APIs and programs only accept JSON. Converting a YAML config lets you feed it to tools that don't speak YAML, or validate it against a JSON schema.

How the conversion works

Convertur parses YAML with the safe loader (no arbitrary code execution) and pretty-prints the result as two-space-indented JSON.

Quality & compatibility notes

Anchors and aliases are resolved into plain values. If the YAML is malformed, you get a clear error pointing at the problem instead of a silent failure.

How to yaml to json

  1. Drop a .yaml/.yml file into the zone above, or paste YAML into the text tab.
  2. Press Convert to parse it locally in your browser.
  3. Preview the JSON, then download it.
