About the JSON ↔ TOON Converter

TOON: A More Human-Friendly Format

TOON (Token-Oriented Object Notation) is a data serialization format designed to be extremely easy for humans to read and write. It uses simple tokens and indentation to structure data, minimizing special characters like brackets and braces.

  • JSON is strict and machine-friendly, ideal for APIs.
  • TOON is clean and human-friendly, making it great for configuration files or data that needs to be easily reviewed by people.

Why Convert Between JSON and TOON?

As a newer format, the ability to convert to and from the universal JSON standard is crucial for interoperability.

  • Configuration Management: Write your app configurations in easy-to-read TOON, then convert them to JSON for your application to consume.
  • API Data Readability: Convert a complex JSON response from an API into TOON to make it easier to inspect and understand.
  • Adopting New Standards: This tool acts as a bridge, allowing you to experiment with and adopt the TOON format while still maintaining compatibility with JSON-based systems.
