What is a YAML to JSON Converter?
A YAML to JSON converter is a tool that transforms data from YAML (YAML Ain't Markup Language) format into JSON (JavaScript Object Notation). It parses the human-readable, indentation-based structure of YAML and converts it into the key-value pair and array-based format of JSON.
Why Use Our YAML to JSON Converter?
- API Integration: To convert human-readable YAML configuration files into JSON for use in APIs that require JSON input.
