Frequently Asked Questions

Does it preserve comments during YAML to JSON conversion?
No, JSON does not support comments, so any YAML comments will be stripped out during the conversion to JSON.
Can it handle multi-document YAML files?
Currently, the tool is optimized for single-document YAML files commonly used in application settings and API payloads.
