How to do JSON formatting?

JSON formatting involves adding proper indentation, line breaks, and spacing to make JSON readable. Use our JSON Formatter at jsonconsole.com/json-formatter which automatically formats any JSON with perfect structure. Simply paste minified or poorly formatted JSON, and the formatter organizes it with consistent indentation and hierarchy. Formatting makes nested objects and arrays clear, placing each property on its own line with appropriate spacing. You can choose indentation styles (2 or 4 spaces) to match your preferences. The formatter also validates syntax while formatting, catching errors immediately. Manual formatting requires understanding JSON structure: place opening braces on the same line as keys, indent nested elements consistently, align closing braces with their opening counterparts, and ensure proper comma placement. Our formatter eliminates manual work, handles large files efficiently, and produces consistently formatted output. Use it for development, debugging, or preparing JSON for documentation.
