What is YAML?

YAML (YAML Aint Markup Language) is a human-readable data serialization standard that is often used for configuration files.

Why use YAML over JSON?

YAML is generally more readable and supports comments, making it better for configuration files maintained by humans.

Can I convert YAML with comments?

Comments in YAML are stripped during the conversion process to JSON, as JSON does not support comments.

Does it support multiple documents?

Standard JSON does not support multiple root documents, so multi-document YAML streams may need to be split or converted to a JSON array.

Is the indentation customizable?

The tool uses standard 2-space indentation for YAML output, which is the most common convention.
